Gate sizing and threshold voltage (Vt) assignment are popular techniques for circuit timing and power optimization. Existing methods, by and large, are either sensitivity-driven h...
Code libraries are characterized by feature-richness — and, consequently, high overhead. The library specialization problem is the problem of obtaining a low-overhead version of...
