Finding all satisfying assignments of a propositional formula has many applications in the design of hardware and software. An approach to this problem augments a clause-recording...
Grid-warping is a recent placement strategy based on a novel physical analogy: rather than move the gates to optimize their location, it elastically deforms a model of the 2-D chi...
Our work addresses protection of hardware IP at the mask level with the goal of preventing unauthorized manufacturing. The proposed protocol based on chip locking and activation i...
Abstract. In order to facilitate the development of agent-based software, several agent programming languages and architectures, have been created. Plans in these architectures are...
The exponential distribution is a key distribution in many event-driven Monte-Carlo simulations, where it is used to model the time between random events in the system. This paper...
