This paper studies the impact of variability on the noise robustness of logic gates using noise rejection curves (NRCs). NRCs allow noise pulses to be modeled using magnitude-dura...
As the VLSI technology scales towards the nanometer regime, circuit performance is increasingly affected by variations. These variations need to be considered at an early stage in...
We present a formulation of retiming to minimize the number of registers in a design by iterating a maximum network flow problem. The retiming returned will be the optimum one whi...

Domain-specific reconfigurable arrays have shown to provide an efficient trade-off between flexibility of FPGA and performance of ASIC circuit. Nonetheless, the design of these he...
— A data driven approach to design and optimization of low power combinational multipliers is presented. This technique depends on signal gating to avoid un-necessary computation...
