In this paper we investigate the general problem of discovering recurrent patterns that are embedded in categorical sequences. An important real-world problem of this nature is mo...
As technology scales to 40nm and beyond, intra-die process variability will cause large delay and leakage variations across a chip in addition to expected die-to-die variations. I...

Buffer insertion method plays a great role in modern VLSI design. Many buffer insertion algorithms have been proposed in recent years. However, most of them used simplified delay ...
Interconnect delay has become a critical factor in determining the performance of integrated circuits. Routing and buffering are powerful means of improving the circuit speed and ...
We study the problem of answering queries over sources with limited access patterns. Given a first-order query Q, the problem is to decide whether there is an equivalent query whi...
