– The trend in communication systems is towards more rapidly changing specifications with shorter time intervals between updates of existing standards. This results in a coexiste...
Process variations have become a critical issue in performance verification of high-performance designs. We present a new, statistical timing analysis method that accounts for int...
As the size and complexity of VLSI circuits increase, the need for faster floorplanning algorithms also grows. In this work we introduce Traffic, a new method for creating wire- a...
With the advent of system-on-a-chip design, many application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) now require multiple design clocks that operate asynchronously to each other. This...
Application Specific Instruction-Set Processors (ASIPs) offer designers the ability for high-speed data and control processing with the added flexibility needed for late design sp...
