In the past two decades, the simulated annealing technique has been considered as a powerful approach to handle many NP-hard optimization problems in VLSI designs. Recently, a new...

{ Hierarchy plays a signicant role in the design of digital and analog circuits. At each level of the hierarchy it becomes essential to evaluate if a sub-block design is feasible ...
Client-side diversification led the video-coding community to develop scalable video-codecs supporting efficient decoding at varying quality levels. This scalability has a lot of...

We present a technique for fast estimation of the power consumed by the cache and bus sub-system of a parameterized system-on-a-chip design for a given application. The technique ...
Abstract - An approach to top down design for testability using register-transfer level(RTL) partial scan selection is described. We propose a scan selection technique based on tes...
