This paper addresses the problem of low-power fanout optimization. We show that due to neglecting short-circuit current, previous analytical techniques proposed to optimize the ar...
Physical Design of modern systems on chip is extremely challenging. Such digital integrated circuits often contain tens of millions of logic gates, intellectual property blocks, e...

Majority of existing works on system level power estimation have focused on the processor, while there are very few that address power consumption of peripherals in a SoC. With th...
In this paper, we present a hierarchical ratio partitioning based placement algorithm for large-scale mixed-size designs. The placement algorithm consists of three steps: global p...
