Circuits using nano-meter technologies are becoming increasingly vulnerable to signal interference from multiple noise sources as well as radiation-induced soft errors. One way to...
Modern processing technologies offer a number of types of devices such as high-VT , low-VT , thick-oxide, etc. in addition to the nominal transistor in order to meet system perfor...

A human-powered user interface device sources its power from the physical effort required to operate it. This paper describes a technique by which a geared DC motor and a simple c...
Considering the voltage drop constraint over a distributed model for power/ground (P/G) network, we study the following two problems for physical synthesis of sleep transistors: t...
