Abstract. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a paradigm that employs a set of cooperating agents to solve functions or obtain good solutions for combinatorial optimization problems. ...
In many designs, the worst-case-delay path may never be exercised or may be exercised infrequently. For those designs, a strategy of optimizing a circuit for the worst-case condit...

Straining of silicon improves mobility of carriers resulting in speed enhancement for transistors in CMOS technology. Traditionally, silicon straining is applied in a similar ad-h...
Process improvement is a challenging task for software engineering. As Kuvaja [7]. has stated it:” It is difficult to find a unique way to identify a common improvement path suit...
Background: Physical maps are the substrate of genome sequencing and map-based cloning and their construction relies on the accurate assembly of BAC clones into large contigs that...
