The event that led to much of the recent research presented here was the articulation by Cris of a seemingly innocuous question. This question...

In 1859 Bernhard Riemann, a shy German mathematician, wrote an eight-page article, suggesting an answer to a problem that had long puzzled mathematicians.

This book stems from my experience over the last few years in designing high-speed digital logic using ASIC design flows. I discovered that while it is possible to significantly improve performance in ASIC implementations with deep pipelining and careful physical design, a speed penalty still had to be paid due to their exclusive use of...
