Logic programming under the answer-set semantics nowadays deals with numerous different notions of equivalence between programs. This is due to the fact that equivalence for substi...
Analytical models for the dynamics of some discrete event systems are introduced where the system trajectories are solutions to linear and mixed-integer programs. 1 BACKGROUND The...
Mixed-Integer Programs (MIP's) involving logical implications modelled through big-M coefficients, are notoriously among the hardest to solve. In this paper we propose and an...
Advanced process technologies call for a proactive consideration of process variations in design to ensure high parametric timing yield. Despite of its popular use in almost any h...
Abstract-- Increasing delay and power variation are significant challenges to the designers as technology scales to the deep sub-micron (DSM) regime. Traditional module selection t...
