Analog and mixed-signal CAD looks like a nice success story: there's been significant research in building design automation tools since the late 80's, and commercial to...
As the technology migrates into the deep submicron manufacturing (DSM) era, the critical dimension of the circuits is getting smaller than the lithographic wavelength. The unavoid...
In this paper, we propose a new approach for gated bus synthesis [16] with minimum wire capacitance per transaction in three-dimensional (3D) ICs. The 3D IC technology connects di...
