Clusters of SMPs are becoming increasingly common. However, the shared memory design of SMPs and the consequential contention between system processors for access to main memory c...
Abstract—Integrated power supplies are critical building blocks in stateof-the-art portable applications, where they efficiently and accurately transform a battery supply into va...
This paper studies adaptive bilateral negotiation between software agents in e-commerce environments. Specifically, we assume that the agents are self-interested, the environment...
— Sub-resolution assist features (SRAFs) provide an absolutely essential technique for critical dimension (CD) control and process window enhancement in subwavelength lithography...
: In ultra-deep submicron VLSI circuits, clock network is a major source of power consumption and power supply noise. Therefore, it is very important to minimize clock network size...
