Digital synthesis tools such as logic synthesis and semicustom layout have dramatically changed both the frontend (specification to netlist) and backend (netlist to mask) steps of the digital IC de- sign process. In this tutorial, we look... more
Independent control of front and back gate in double gate (DG) devices can be used to merge parallel transistors in noncritical paths. This reduces the effective switching capacitance and, hence, the dynamic power dissipation of a... more
In this paper we present a new hybrid transform based on the Kronecker product of Reed-Muller and Reed-Muller Haar transforms. The proposed transform shares attractive properties of both Reed-Muller transform and Reed-Muller Haar... more
We present a new synthesis strategy that can automate fully the path from an analog circuit topology and performance specifications to a sized circuit schematic. This strategy relies on asymptotic waveform evaluation to predict circuit... more
The task of this report is to present the proposed re- search program, and to review the literature describing the main characteristics of quantum computing, genetic algorithms and cir- cuit synthesis. We also present selected parts from... more

Field-programmable gate-array (FPGA) logic synthesis and technology mapping have been studied extensively over the past 15 years. However, progress within the last few years has slowed considerably (with some notable exceptions). It seems... more

This paper presents an extension of the AAA rapid prototyping methodology for the optimized implementation of real-time applications onto reconfigurable circuits. This extension is based on an unified model of factorized data dependence... more
