This paper presents a modification of the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) intended to combat the problem of premature convergence observed in many applications of PSO. ...
—This paper proposes a circuit optimization approach that can ease the computational burden on the simulation-based circuit optimizers by leveraging simple design equations that ...
Despite continued innovations in design of I/O systems, I/O performance has not kept pace with the progress in processor and communication technology. This paper addresses this I/...
Datapath width optimization is very effective for reducing the area of a custom-made embedded system. The trivial way of optimization is to iteratively customize, evaluate, and r...
—The design of a wireless local area network (WLAN) has an important issue of determining the optimal placement of access points (APs) and assignment of channels to them. WLAN se...
