Buffered Crossbar Fabrics Based on Networks on Chip
— Buffered crossbar (CICQ) switches have shown a high potential in scaling Internet routers capacity. However, they require expensive on-chip buffers whose cost grows quadratical...

A hybrid dynamic/quadratic programming algorithm for interconnect tree optimization
In this paper, we present an algorithm for delay minimization of interconnect trees by simultaneous buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing. The algorithm integrates the quadratic...

Performance-driven register insertion in placement
As the CMOS technology is scaled into the dimension of nanometer, the clock frequencies and die sizes of ICs are shown to be increasing steadily [5]. Today, global wires that requ...

Optimizing dominant time constant in RC circuits
— Conventional methods for optimal sizing of wires and transistors use linear resistor-capacitor (RC) circuit models and the Elmore delay as a measure of signal delay. If the RC ...
