AI/ML Algorithms and Applications in VLSI Design and Technology
An evident challenge ahead for the integrated circuit (IC) industry in the
nanometer regime is the investigation and development of methods that can
reduce the design complexity ensuing from growing process variations and
curtail the turnaround time of chip manufacturing. Conventional methodologies
employed for such tasks are largely manual; thus, time-consuming and
resource-intensive. In contrast, the unique learning strategies of artificial
intelligence (AI) provide numerous exciting automated approaches for handling
complex and data-intensive tasks in very-large-scale integration (VLSI) design
and testing. Employing AI and machine learning (ML) algorithms in VLSI design
and manufacturing reduces the time and effort for understanding and processing
the data within and across different abstraction levels via automated learning
algorithms. It, in turn, improves the IC yield and reduces the manufacturing
turnaround time. This paper thoroughly reviews the AI/ML automated approaches
introduced in the past towards VLSI design and manufacturing. Moreover, we
discuss the scope of AI/ML applications in the future at various abstraction
levels to revolutionize the field of VLSI design, aiming for high-speed, highly
intelligent, and efficient implementations
System- and Data-Driven Methods and Algorithms
An increasing complexity of models used to predict real-world systems leads to the need for algorithms to replace complex models with far simpler ones, while preserving the accuracy of the predictions. This two-volume handbook covers methods as well as applications. This first volume focuses on real-time control theory, data assimilation, real-time visualization, high-dimensional state spaces and interaction of different reduction techniques
Model Order Reduction
An increasing complexity of models used to predict real-world systems leads to the need for algorithms to replace complex models with far simpler ones, while preserving the accuracy of the predictions. This three-volume handbook covers methods as well as applications. This third volume focuses on applications in engineering, biomedical engineering, computational physics and computer science
Microelectromechanical Systems and Devices
The advances of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and devices have been instrumental in the demonstration of new devices and applications, and even in the creation of new fields of research and development: bioMEMS, actuators, microfluidic devices, RF and optical MEMS. Experience indicates a need for MEMS book covering these materials as well as the most important process steps in bulk micro-machining and modeling. We are very pleased to present this book that contains 18 chapters, written by the experts in the field of MEMS. These chapters are groups into four broad sections of BioMEMS Devices, MEMS characterization and micromachining, RF and Optical MEMS, and MEMS based Actuators. The book starts with the emerging field of bioMEMS, including MEMS coil for retinal prostheses, DNA extraction by micro/bio-fluidics devices and acoustic biosensors. MEMS characterization, micromachining, macromodels, RF and Optical MEMS switches are discussed in next sections. The book concludes with the emphasis on MEMS based actuators
