Abstract. A new technique for combinational logic optimization is described. The technique is a two-step process. In the first step, the nonlinearity of a circuit – as measured ...
Thermal problems and limitations on interlayer via densities are important design constraints on three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), and need to be considered during g...
In this paper, we present a new technique for the e cient dynamic detection and removal of inactive clauses, i.e. clauses that do not a ect the solutions of interest of a Boolean ...
Architectural simulation has achieved a prominent role in the system design cycle by providing designers the ability to quickly examine a wide variety of design choices. However, ...
In nanometer regime, the effects of variations are having an increasing impact on the delay and power characteristics of devices as well as the yield of the circuit. Statistical t...
