Human lives are getting increasingly entangled with technology,
especially comp- ing and electronics. At each step we take,
especially in a developing world, we are dependent on various
gadgets such as cell phones, handheld PDAs, netbooks, me- cal
prosthetic devices, and medical measurement devices (e.g., blood
pressure m- itors, glucometers). Two important design constraints
for such consumer electronics are their form factor and battery
life. This translates to the requirements of reduction in the die
area and reduced power consumption for the semiconductor chips that
go inside these gadgets. Performance is also important, as
increasingly sophisticated applications run on these devices, and
many of them require fast response time. The form factor of such
electronics goods depends not only on the overall area of the chips
inside them but also on the packaging, which depends on thermal ch-
acteristics. Thermal characteristics in turn depend on peak power
signature of the chips. As a result, while the overall energy usage
reduction increases battery life, peak power reduction in?uences
the form factor. One more important aspect of these electronic
equipments is that every 6 months or so, a newer feature needs to
be added to keep ahead of the market competition, and hence new
designs have to be completed with these new features, better form
factor, battery life, and performance every few months. This
extreme pressure on the time to market is another force that drives
the innovations in design automation of semiconductor chips.
