In the nanometer IC design, dummy fill is often performed to improve layout pattern uniformity and the post-CMP quality. However, filling dummies might greatly increase intercon...
Information Systems Security (ISS) is critical to ensuring the integrity and credibility of digitally exchanged information in business processes. Information systems development ...
—Power consumption has emerged as the premier and most constraining aspect in modern microprocessor and application-specific designs. Gate sizing has been shown to be one of the...
