This paper looks at the CAD implications of possible new interconnect technologies. We consider three technologies in particular: three dimensional ICs, carbon nanotubes as a repl...
As VLSI circuit speeds have increased, reliable chip and system design can no longer be performed without accurate threedimensional interconnect models. In this paper, we describe...

Datapath width optimization is very effective for reducing the area of a custom-made embedded system. The trivial way of optimization is to iteratively customize, evaluate, and r...
Abstract Polyphase channelizer is an important component of subband adaptive filtering systems. This paper presents an energy-efficient hardware architecture and VLSI implementatio...
This paper presents a transistor optimization methodology for low-power analog integrated CMOS circuits, relying on the physics-based gm/ID characteristics as a design optimizatio...
