Abstract :
Addressing fundamental challenges to designing high-performance ICs in nanometer-scale technologies, the authors advocate a flexible approach to limiting both dynamic and static power. They recommend global-signaling strategies to curb communication power requirements and thermal management techniques to ease the burden on packaging
