VLSI Structures for DNA Sequencing—A Survey

Highly Concurrent VLSI Computing Structures for DCA

In this paper highly concurrent pipelined computing structures based on a constrained digital contour smoothing are described. The smoothing minimizes the undersampling, digitizing and quantizing error and so it is able to improve the stability of invariants calculation. The word-level and bit-level systolic arrays for completely pipelined calculation of the constrained least-squares digital co...

Homogeneous VLSI Structures for Finite Ring Computations1

This paper discusses the basic concepts, and presents some preliminary results, of an approach towards the development of homogeneous arrays for massively parallel VLSI computation of Digital Signal Processing algorithms. The generation of such arrays is made possible by computing over finite rings, rather than weighted magnitude systems, such as binary, and by performing the computations at th...

Comprehensive Evaluation of Crosstalk and Delay Profiles in VLSI Interconnect Structures with Partially Coupled Lines

In this paper, we present a methodology to explore and evaluate the crosstalk noise and the profile of its variations, and the delay of interconnects through investigation of two groups of interconnect structures in nano scale VLSI circuits. The interconnect structures in the first group are considered to be partially coupled identical lines. In this case, by choosing proper values for differen...

A Software Tool for 3D Meshing of VLSI Interconnect Structures

Due to decreasing dimensions and increasing signalfrequencies, the study of on-chip parasitic effects has become of basic importance. In order to accurately predict the behavior of a VLSI design, it is nowadays necessary to use tools capable of performing detailed field-calculations. A primary requirement for such computations is that the domain is decomposed into a mesh. This paper describes t...
