1. Efficient high-speed on-chip global interconnects
Abstract : The continuous miniaturization of integrated circuits has opened the path towards System-on-Chip realizations. Process shrinking into the nanometer regime improves transistor performancewhile the delay of global interconnects, connecting circuit blocks separated by a long distance, significantly increases.

2. Design of efficient high-speed on-chip global interconnects
Abstract : The development of integrated circuits is continuously moving towards a System-on Chip realization where global interconnects, connecting circuit blocks separated by a long distance, have been considered a showstopper for process scaling due to their RC-delays. Our knowledge today is that high-speed interconnects must be described by models which include not only R and C, but also inductance and skin effect. READ MORE

3. System Interconnection Design Trade-offs in Three-Dimensional (3-D) Integrated Circuits
Abstract : Continued technology scaling together with the integration of disparate technologies in a single chip means that device performance continues to outstrip interconnect and packaging capabilities, and hence there exist many difficult engineering challenges, most notably in power management, noise isolation, and intra and inter-chip communication. Significant research effort spanning many decades has been expended on traditional VLSI integration technologies, encompassing process, circuit and architectural issues to tackle these problems.

4. VCSEL Techniques for Wavelength-Multiplexed Optical Interconnects
Abstract : The majority of global data communication is taking place within data centers where data is stored and processed and where the largest part of the power used for global networking is consumed. With the rapidly increasing use of Internet-based applications and services, data centers are equipped with a larger number of servers and switches requiring higher bandwidth connectivity. READ MORE
