Logic Design of NanoICs draws connections between traditional approaches to design and modern design in nanodimensions. It introduces the directions and basic methodology of logic design at the nanoscale, then covers nanotechnologies and CAD, graphical representation of switching functions and networks, word-level and linear word-level data structures, 3-D topologies based on hypercubes, multilevel circuit design, and fault-tolerant computation in hypercube-like structures. The authors propose design solutions and techniques, going beyond the underlying technology to provide more applied knowledge. The book includes abundant figures, tables, examples, and problems.
