Simultaneous optimization of supply and threshold voltages for low-power and high-performance circuits in the leakage dominant e
Electrothermal couplings between supply voltage, operating frequency, power dissipation and die temperature have been shown to significantly impact the energy-delay-product (EDP) ...

Incremental exploration of the combined physical and behavioral design space
Achieving design closure is one of the biggest headaches for modern VLSI designers. This problem is exacerbated by high-level design automation tools that ignore increasingly impo...

A lattice-based framework for the classification and design of asynchronous pipelines
This paper presents a unifying framework for the modeling of asynchronous pipeline circuits. A pipeline protocol is captured in a graph-based model which defines the partial order...

Circuit simulation based obstacle-aware Steiner routing
Steiner routing is a fundamental yet NP-hard problem in VLSI design and other research fields. In this paper, we propose to model the routing graph by an RC network with routing t...
