Clock mesh is popular in high performance VLSI design because it is more robust against variations than clock tree at a cost of higher power consumption. In this paper, we propose ...
Clock network construction is one key problem in high performance VLSI design. Reducing the clock skew variation is one of the most important objectives during clock network synthe...

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...
This paper investigates retiming and clock skew scheduling for improving the tolerance of synchronous circuits to delay variations. It is shown that when both long and short paths...
-In high performance systems, process variations and fluctuations of operating environments have significant impact on the clock skew. Recently, hybrid structures of H-tree and m...
