چکیده
Power dissipation has emerged as an important design parameter in the design of microelectronic circuits, especially in portable computing and personal communication applications. In this paper, we survey state-of-the-art optimization methods that target low power dissipation in VLSI circuits. Optimizations at the circuit, logic, architectural and system levels are considered.
