We present new techniques for explicit constraint satisfaction in the incremental placement process. Our algorithm employs a Lagrangian Relaxation (LR) type approach in the analyt...
Dynamic power is the main source of power consumption in CMOS circuits. It depends on the square of the supply voltage. It may significantly be reduced by scaling down the supply ...

Process variations in modern VLSI technologies are growing in both magnitude and dimensionality. To assess performance variability, complex simulation and performance models param...
In tree-based multicast systems, a relatively small number of interior nodes carry the load of forwarding multicast messages. This works well when the interior nodes are highlyava...
