This book presents the research challenges that are due to the
introduction of the 3rd dimension in chips for researchers and covers
the whole architectural design approach for 3D-SoCs. Nowadays the
3D-Integration technologies, 3D-Design techniques, and 3D-Architectures
are emerging as interesting, truly hot, broad topics. The present book
gathers the recent advances in the whole domain by renowned experts in
the field to build a comprehensive and consistent book around the hot
topics of three-dimensional architectures and micro-architectures. This
book includes contributions from high level international teams working
in this field.
