Potential slack is an effective metric of circuit’s possible performance improvement. It is equal to the maximal amount of slack that can be potentially used for optimization. I...
Clock distribution has traditionally been a circuit design problem with negligible micro-architectural impact. However, for clock distribution networks using multiple phase-locked...

An improved design of a dynamic Flip-Flop is presented. Proposed design overcomes the problem of the glitch at the output and improves Power-Delay Product for about 10%, while pre...
An arithmetic read-once formula (ROF for short) is a formula (a circuit whose underlying graph is a tree) in which the operations are {+, ×} and such that every input variable la...
This work addresses the problem of information leakage of cryptographic devices, by using the reconfiguration technique allied to an RNS based arithmetic. The information leaked b...
