A Robust and Efficient Compact Model for Phase-Change Memory Circuit Simulations

Energy Efficient Caching for Phase-Change Memory

Phase-Change Memory (PCM) has the potential to replace DRAM as the primary memory technology due to its non-volatility, scalability, and high energy efficiency. However, the adoption of PCM will require technological solutions to surmount some deficiencies of PCM, such as writes requiring significantly more energy and time than reads. One way to limit the number of writes is by adopting a last-...

A complete model of E2PROM memory cells for circuit simulations

EPROM memory devices are widely used in embedded applications. For an efficient design flow, a correct modeling of these memory cells in every operation condition becomes more and more important, especially due to power consumption limitations. Although EPROM cells are being used for a long time, very few compact models have been developed. Here, we present a complete compact model based on an ...

A Compact Thermal Model for Segmented Nanowire Phase-change Memory Cells

A robust optimization model for distribution and evacuation in the disaster response phase

Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, affect thousands of people and can cause enormous financial loss. Therefore, an efficient response immediately following a natural disaster is vital to minimize the aforementioned negative effects. This research paper presents a network design model for humanitarian logistics which will assist in location and allocation decisions for multiple disaster per...

A Unified Charge-current VS Compact Model for Graphene Transistors Applicable in Analog Circuit Simulations

With its rich physics, graphene has properties that make it a viable candidate for implementing electronic devices. For example, graphene as a two-dimensional material has a limited phase space for scattering of electrons; hence, the electrons in graphene can have a long MFP–a property that can be utilized to build high frequency devices , . However, to design and simulate electronic circuits b...
