In this paper we present a statistical method for estimating the maximum power consumption in VLSI circuits. The method is based on the theory of extreme order statistics applied ...
Leading-edge systems-on-chip (SoC) being designed today could reach 20 Million gates and 0.5 to 1 GHz operating frequency. In order to implement such systems, designers are increa...
Conventional global routing minimizes total wire length and congestion. Experiments using large industrial benchmark circuits show that up to 24% of nets in such routing solutions...
Multiple clock cycles are needed to cross the global interconnects for multi-gigahertz designs in nanometer technologies. For synchronous designs, this requires retiming and pipel...
Signal processing and multimedia applications are often implemented on resource constrained embedded systems. It is therefore important to find implementations that use as little ...
