The relentless push for high performance in custom digital circuits has led to renewed emphasis on circuit optimization or tuning. The parameters of the optimization are typically...
With continued scaling of technology into nanometer regimes, the impact of coupling induced delay variations is significant. While several coupling-aware static timers have been pr...

Networks-on-chip (NoCs) are used in a growing number of SoCs and multi-core processors. Because messages compete for the NoC’s shared resources, quality of service and resource ...
