  • Abstract
    The increasing number of thermal-related problems in VLSI circuit led to the requirement for more efficient temperature analysis tools. In this paper, we developed an algorithm to calculate temperature profile using BEM, our method can handle large amount of heat-sources, thus surface temperature profile and inner profile could be calculated quickly and accurately
