-- Power-gating is a technique for efficiently reducing leakage power by shutting off the idle blocks. However, the presence of power-gating may also introduce negative effects on ...
Abstract— Timing and low power emerge as the most important goals in contemporary design. Meanwhile, the majority of placement algorithms developed by industry and academia still...
— As the technology scales into 90nm and below, process-induced variations become more pronounced. In this paper, we propose an efficient stochastic method for analyzing the vol...
Circuit activity is a function of input patterns. When circuit activity changes abruptly, it can cause sudden drop or rise in power supply voltage. This change is known as power d...
