Three-Dimensional integration provides a simultaneous improvement in wire-related delay and power consumption of microprocessor circuits. Prior work has looked at the performance,...
The many levels of metal used in aggressive deep submicron process technologies has made fast and accurate capacitance extraction of complicated 3-D geometries of conductors essen...
FPGA routing resources typically consist of segments of various lengths. Due to the segmented routing architectures, the traditional measure of wiring cost (wirelength, delay, con...
Highlighted with the newly released intellectual property (IP) protection white paper by VSI Alliance, the protection of virtual components (VCs) has received a large amount of at...
