We present a protocol for anonymous communication over the Internet. Our protocol, called
P 5 (Peer-to-Peer Personal Privacy Protocol) provides sender–, receiver–, and sender …

Presenting a comprehensive overview of the design automation algorithms, tools, and
methodologies used to design integrated circuits, the Electronic Design Automation for …

In this paper we develop a general methodology to analyze crosstalk to obtain insight into
effects that are likely to cause errors in deep submicron high speed circuits. We focus on …

Due to technology scaling and increasing clock frequency, problems due to noise effects
lead to an increase in design/debugging efforts and a decrease in circuit performance. This …

Fabless semiconductor companies design system-on-chips (SoC) by using third-party
intellectual property (IP) cores and fabricate them in offshore, potentially untrustworthy …

This paper addresses the problem of efficiently and accurately generating two-vector tests
for crosstalk induced effects, such as pulses, signal speedup and slowdown, in digital …

Accurate noise analysis is currently of significant concern to high-performance designs, and
the number of signals susceptible to noise effects will certainly increase in smaller process …

We propose a new VLSI layout methodology which addresses the main problems faced in
Deep Sub-Micron (DSM) integrated circuit design. Our layout “fabric” scheme eliminates the …

Increased noise/interference effects, such as crosstalk, power supply noise, substrate noise
and distributed delay variations lead to increased signal integrity problems in deep …

The statistical variations in electrical parameters, such as transistor gain factors and
interconnect resistances, due to variations in the manufacturing process are studied using …
