The electrostatic discharge (ESD) problem has become a challenging reliability issue in nanometer circuit design. High voltages resulted from ESD might cause high current densitie...
Through a study of web site design practice, we observed that web site designers employ multiple representations of web sites as they progress through the design process, and that...
Test is often seen as a necessary evil; it is a fact of life that ICs have manufacturing defects and those need to be filtered out by testing before the ICs are shipped to the cu...

—Temperature has a strong influence on integrated circuit (IC) performance, power consumption, and reliability. However, accurate thermal analysis can impose high computation co...
This work presents a new and computationally efficient performance optimization technique for distributed RLC interconnects based on a rigorous delay computation scheme. The new o...
