We describe a Java toolkit that is designed to support the creation of powerful and extensible GUI interfaces during the first year computer science course. The goals of this tool...
This paper presents an efficient heuristic algorithm to design a power distribution network of a chip by employing a successive partitioning and grid refinement scheme. In an it...
Because the inductive noise Ldi/dt is induced by the power change and can have disastrous impact on the timing and reliability of the system, high-performance CPU designs are more ...
