Logic duplication is an effective method for improving circuit performance. In this paper we present an algorithm named SPD that performs simultaneous placement and duplication to...
: The direct result of shrinking devices is not only higher densities but also increased switching activity and thus higher device temperatures. The variation in temperature over t...

Abstract— Process variations make at-speed testing significantly more difficult. They cause subtle delay changes that are distributed rather than the localized nature of a trad...

This paper examines the latency in Internet path failure, failover and repair due to the convergence properties of interdomain routing. Unlike switches in the public telephony net...
Traditional timing-driven placement considers only combinational delays and does not take into account the potential of subsequent sequential optimization steps. As a result, the ...
