We present an efficient technique for finding the mean and variance of the full-chip leakage of a candidate design, while considering logic-structures and both die-to-die and with...
Abstract-Our strategy for automatic generation of functional vectors is based on exercising selected paths in the given hardware description language (HDL) model. The HDL model des...
Digital system designs are the product of valuable effort and knowhow. Their embodiments, from software and HDL program down to device-level netlist and mask data, represent caref...

The advent of portable and high-density devices has made power consumption a critical design concern. In this paper, we address the problem of reducing power consumption via gate-...
Reducing power dissipation is one of the most principle subjects in VLSI design today. Scaling causes subthreshold leakage currents to become a large component of total power diss...
