A Regular Layout for Parallel Adders

TLDR
It is shown that addition of n-bit binary numbers can be performed on a chip with a regular layout in time proportional to log n and with area proportional to n.
Abstract
With VLSI architecture, the chip area and design regularity represent a better measure of cost than the conventional gate count. We show that addition of n-bit binary numbers can be performed on a chip with a regular layout in time proportional to log n and with area proportional to n.

VLSI implementations of efficient isotropic flexible 2D convolvers

TL;DR: A new 2D isotropic convolver designed to operate on 256 grey-level images is presented, and when realised by using 90 nm IV CMOS technology, exhibits a 1.25-GHz running frequency with an average power dissipation of only sime1 mW/MHz.

A folded 32-bit prefix tree adder in 0.16-/spl mu/m static CMOS

TL;DR: A new prefix tree adder that is faster than previously published adder designs is presented, achieved by rearranging the logic for the computation of the sum bits in the final stage of the adder so as to exploit the differing delays with which the group-transmit, group-generate, and carries are generated.

Power-speed trade-off in parallel prefix circuits

TL;DR: A comparative study of different parallel prefix circuits form the point of view of power-speed trade-off can help identify parallel prefix algorithms with the desirable power consumption with a given throughput.

Computer-aided-design methods for emerging quantum computing technologies

TL;DR: A novel QMDD-based tool for cascade logic synthesis that utilizes the Q MDD minimized variable order for lexicographical synthesis with garbage minimization included as an optimization criterion and a synthesis tool that investigates the QCA native 3-input majority gates ability to implement complex logic circuits.
