We extend in this paper the concept of the P-admissible floorplan representation to that of the P*-admissible one. A P*-admissible representation can model the most general floorp...
This paper presents a power grid analyzer based on a random walk technique. A linear-time algorithm is first demonstrated for DC analysis, and is then extended to perform transien...
