Structured ASICs provide an exciting middle ground between FPGA and ASIC design methodologies. Compared to ASIC, structured ASIC based designs require lower non recurring engineer...
Clock skew minimization is always very important in the clock tree synthesis. Due to clock gating, the clock tree may include different types of logic gates, e.g., AND gates, OR g...
Novel methodology and algorithms to seamlessly integrate logic synthesis and physical placement through a transformational approach are presented. Contrary to most placement algor...

— A methodology based on supply voltage optimization for lowering the power consumption and temperature fluctuations induced skew of clock distribution networks is proposed in th...
Crosstalk noise in the clock network of digital circuits is often detected late in the design cycle, sometimes as late as after first silicon. It is therefore necessary to fix cros...
