floorplanning is an important step in physical design of vlsi circuits. it is used to plan the positions of a set of circuit modules on a chip in order to optimize the circuit performance. however, modern floorplanning takes better care of providing extra options to place dedicated modules in the hierarchical designs to align circuit blocks one by one within certain bounding box for helping seq...

| In this paper, we address the problem of network survivability by presenting a uniied approach where the wide-area circuit-switched teletraac network and the underlying transmission facility network are considered simultaneously. We assume the backbone circuit-switched teletraac network to be nonhierarchical with dynamic call routing capabilities. The transmission facility network is consider...

A dynamic window model is developed which provides admission control for circuit switched networks through the signalling network. This model incorporates distributed processing while achieving desired global congestion control effects. It reflects the interaction between the circuit switched path in the telephone network and the packet switched path in the signalling network. The model is solv...

A feedback neural network for solving graph coloring problem is presented. The circuit has an associated transcendental energy function that ensures fast convergence to the exact solution. Hardware and PSPICE simulation results on random and benchmark problems have been presented. Test results are compared with existing techniques for graph coloring to show that the proposed neural network mode...

New original circuit model for the power device based on interactive coupling of electrical and thermal properties is described. The thermal equivalent network for a threedimensional heat flow is presented. Designed electro-thermal MOSFET model for circuit simulations with distributed properties and three-dimensional thermal equivalent network is used for simulation of multipulse unclamped indu...

A Finite Element Method (FEM) mesh is converted to a reluctance network through an original magnetostatic formulation based on face shape functions. This meshed reluctance network is coupled with an standard one, characterizing a 0D system. Both approaches are fully-compatible and the hybridized problem can be solve with a single circuit solver. The approach is tested in 2D on a magnetic circui...

IR-drop problem is becoming more and more important. Previous works dealing with power/ground (P/G) network peak current reduction to reduce the IR-drop problem only focus on synchronous sequential logic circuits which consider the combinational parts as unchangeable [4],[5]. However, some large combinational circuits which work alone in one clock cycle can create large current peaks and induce...

This paper presents a simple continuous analog hardware realization of the Random Neural Network (RNN) model. The proposed circuit uses the general principles resulting from the understanding of the basic properties of the ring neuron. The circuit for the neuron model consists only of operational ampli ers, transistors, and resistors, which makes it candidate for VLSI implementation of random n...

We propose a bio-inspired circuit performing pulse-density modulation with single-electron devices. The proposed circuit consists of three single-electron neuronal units, receiving the same input and are connected to a common output. The output is inhibitorily fedback to the three neuronal circuits through a capacitive coupling. The circuit performance was evaluated through Monte-Carlo based co...
