Massoud Pedram is an Iranian American computer engineer noted for his research in green computing,energy storage systems,low-power electronics and design,electronic design automation and quantum computing. In the early 1990s,Pedram pioneered an approach to designing VLSI circuits that considered physical effects during logic synthesis. He named this approach layout-driven logic synthesis,which was subsequently called physical synthesis and incorporated into the standard EDA design flows. Pedram's early work on this subject became a significant prior art reference in a litigation between Synopsys Inc. and Magma Design Automation.
