In combinatorial solution spaces Iterated Local Search (ILS) turns out to be exceptionally successful. The question arises: is ILS also capable of improving the optimization proces...
In order to handle device matching in analog circuits, some pairs of modules are required to be placed symmetrically. This paper addresses this device-level placement problem for ...

We have developed a two-phase generative / discriminative learning procedure for the recognition of classes of objects and concepts in outdoor scenes. Our method uses both multipl...
State elements are increasingly vulnerable to soft errors due to their decreasing size, and the fact that latched errors cannot be completely eliminated by electrical or timing ma...
Many DTM schemes rely heavily on the accurate knowledge of the chip's dynamic thermal state to make optimal performance/ temperature trade-off decisions. This information is ...
