Estimating switching activity is a crucial step in optimizing circuits for low power. In this paper, a fast gate level switching activity estimator for combinational circuits will...
In this paper, we study the interconnect layout optimization problem under a higher-order RLC model to optimize not just delay, but also waveform for RLC circuits with non-monoton...
In this paper we investigate optimal voltage testing approaches for physically-based faults in CMOS circuits. We describe the general nature of the problem and then focus on two f...
The relatively poor scaling of interconnect in modern digital circuits necessitates a number of design optimizations, which must typically be iterated several times to meet the spe...
High-level synthesis (HLS) has been successfully targeted towards the digital signal processing (DSP) domain. Both application-specic integrated circuits (ASICs) and application-...
