A key step in the design of cyclo-static real-time systems is the determination of buffer capacities. In our multi-processor system, we apply back-pressure, which means that tasks...
The classic algorithm for optimal buffer insertion due to van Ginneken has time and space complexity O(n2 ), where n is the number of possible buffer positions. We present a new a...
Ever-growing complexity is forcing design to move above RTL. For example, golden functional models are being written as clearly as possible in software and not optimized or intend...
Antenna effect may damage gate oxides during plasma-based fabrication process. The antenna ratio of total exposed antenna area to total gate oxide area is directly related to the ...
Droplet-based microfluidic biochips have recently gained much attention and are expected to revolutionize the biological laboratory procedure. As biochips are adopted for the comp...
