In the context of physical synthesis, large-scale standard-cell placement algorithms must facilitate incremental changes to layout, both local and global. In particular, flexible...
Thermal/power issues have become increasingly important with more and more transistors being put on a single chip. Many dynamic thermal/power management techniques have been propo...
Multicore SOCs rely on runtime thermal measurements using on-chip sensors for DTM. In this paper we address the problem of estimating the actual temperature of on-chip thermal sen...
Process variations in integrated circuits have significant impact on their performance, leakage and stability. This is particularly evident in large, regular and dense structures...
Abstract— Ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse radio is a promising technique for low-power bio-medical communication systems. While a range of analog and digital UWB architectures exist...
