—Conventional scan design imposes considerable area and delay overheads. To establish a scan chain in the test mode, multiplexers at the inputs of flip-flops and scan wires are...
In this paper we present a system level technique for mapping large, multiple-IP-block designs to channel-width constrained FPGAs. Most FPGA clustering tools [2, 3, 11] aim to red...
Reversible logic has applications in quantum computing, low power CMOS, nanotechnology, optical computing, and DNA computing. The most common reversible gates are the Toffoli gate...

Traditional synthesis techniques optimize CMOS circuits in two phases i) logic minimization and ii) library mapping phase. Typically, the structures and the sizes of the gates in ...
The performance tradeoff between hardware complexity and clock speed is studied. First, a generic superscalar pipeline is defined. Then the specific areas of register renaming, ...
