Combinational circuits are generally thought of as acyclic structures. It is known that cyclic structures can be combinational, and techniques have been proposed to analyze cyclic...
Efficient energy and performance estimation of embedded software is a critical part of any system-level design flow. Macromodeling based estimation is an attempt to speed up estim...
Reconfigurable Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) on the market consist of full-fledged processors and large Field-Programmable Gate-Arrays (FPGAs). The latter can be used to implement the sy...
Deploying multiple supply voltages (multi-Vdds) on one chip is an important technique to reduce dynamic power consumption. In this work we present an optimality study for resource...
In this paper, we propose a new global router, BoxRouter, powered by the concept of box expansion and progressive integer linear programming (ILP). BoxRouter first uses a simple P...
