When VLSI technology scales toward 45nm, the lithography wavelength stays at 193nm. This large gap results in strong refractive effects in lithography. Consequently, it is a huge...
— Typically, placement algorithms attempt to minimize the total net length of a printed circuit board (PCB). However, an MCM’s increased throughput and dense circuitry can easi...
The thermal problem has been emerged as one of the key issues for next-generation IC design. In this paper, we propose a scheme to achieve better thermal distribution for partitio...
Data replication is an excellent technique to move and cache data close to users. By replication, data access performance can be improved dramatically. One of the challenges in da...
