While there seems to be a general agreement that next years' systems will include many processing cores, it is often overlooked that these systems will also include an increa...
Ultra-deep submicron manufacturability impacts physical design (PD) through complex layout rules and large guardbands for process variability; this creates new requirements for ne...
For complex systems that are reusing intellectual property components, functional and compositional design correctness are an important part of the design process. Common system l...

Efficient system-level design is increasingly relying on hierarchical design-space exploration, as well as compositional methods, to shorten time-to-market, leverage design re-use...
In the context of physical synthesis, large-scale standard-cell placement algorithms must facilitate incremental changes to layout, both local and global. In particular, flexible ...
