On the need for statistical timing analysis
Traditional corner analysis fails to guarantee a target yield for a given performance metric. However, recently proposed solutions, in the form of statistical timing analysis, which work by propagating delay distributions, do not conform to modern design methodology. Instead, new statistical techniques are needed to modify corner analysis in ways that overcome its weaknesses without violating usage models of timing tools in modern flows.
