Variability-Driven Buffer Insertion Considering Correlations
— In this work we investigate the buffer insertion problem under process variations. Sub 100-nm fabrication process causes significant variations on many design parameters. We p...

Non-uniform clock mesh optimization with linear programming buffer insertion
Clock meshes are extremely effective at filtering clock skew from environmental and process variations. For this reason, clock meshes are used in most high performance designs. Ho...

Sensitivity Based Link Insertion for Variation Tolerant Clock Network Synthesis
Clock distribution is one of the key limiting factors in any high speed, sub-100nm VLSI design. Unwanted clock skews, caused by variation effects like manufacturing variations, po...

An O(nlogn) time algorithm for optimal buffer insertion
The classic algorithm for optimal buffer insertion due to van Ginneken has time and space complexity O(n2 ), where n is the number of possible buffer positions. We present a new a...
