Abstract. In this paper, we propose a hybrid genetic algorithm for partitioning a VLSI circuit graph into two disjoint graphs of minimum cut size. The algorithm includes a local op...
—Time-dependent performance degradation due to transistor aging caused by mechanisms such as Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) and Hot Carrier Injection (HCI) is one o...
Recently there has been quite a number of papers discussing the use of redundant 4-to-2 adders for the accumulation of partial products in multipliers, claiming one type to be sup...
The multiplication of a variable by multiple constants, i.e., the multiple constant multiplications (MCM), has been a central operation and performance bottleneck in many applicat...
Because of the aggressive scaling of integrated circuits and the given limits of atomic scales, circuit designers have to become more and more aware of the arising reliability and...
