We present a set of techniques for placement-coupled, timingdriven logic replication. Two components are at the core of the approach. First is an algorithm for optimal timingdrive...
As across-chip interconnect delays can exceed a clock cycle, wire pipelining becomes essential in high performance designs. Although it allows higher clock frequencies, it may cha...
Code compression has been shown to be an effective technique to reduce code size in memory constrained embedded systems. It has also been used as a way to increase cache hit ratio...

A modular synthesis flow is essential for a scalable and hierarchical design methodology. This paper considers a particular modular flow where each module has interface methods an...
