A survey of different types of prototypes and current prototyping methods is presented. Especially the usage of prototypes with use cases and scenarios is investigated, and an appr...
Hardware square-root units require large numbers of gates even for iterative implementations. In this paper, we present four low-cost high-performance fullypipelined n-select impl...
This paper describes an algorithm for simultaneous gate sizing and fanout optimization along the timing-critical paths in a circuit. First, a continuous-variable delay model that ...
This paper presents a problem-independent framework that uni es various mechanisms for solving discrete constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) problems whose functions are not ne...
A new multiscale method in surface processing is presented here which combines the image processing methodology based on nonlinear diffusion equations and the theory of geometric ...
