— Program code size is a critical factor in determining the manufacturing cost of many embedded systems, particularly those aimed at the extremely costconscious consumer market. ...
In this paper, we propose a new sensitivity based, statistical gate sizing method. Since circuit optimization effects the entire shape of the circuit delay distribution, it is dif...

We give two efficient on-line algorithms to simplify weighted graphs by eliminating degree-two vertices. Our algorithms are on-line -- they react to updates on the data, keeping t...

In the field of robust optimization, the goal is to provide solutions to combinatorial problems that hedge against variations of the numerical parameters. This constitutes an effor...

The class Max (r, 2)-CSP (or simply Max 2-CSP) consists of constraint satisfaction problems with at most two r-valued variables per clause. For instances with n variables and m bin...
