Considering the voltage drop constraint over a distributed model for power/ground (P/G) network, we study the following two problems for physical synthesis of sleep transistors: t...
Sleep transistors in industrial power-gating designs are custom designed with an optimal size. Consequently, sleep transistor P/G network optimization becomes a problem of finding ...
Leakage power has grown significantly and is a major challenge in SoC design. Among SoC's components, clock distribution network power accounts for a large portion of chip po...

Sleep transistors are effective to reduce dynamic and leakage power. The cluster-based design was proposed to reduce the sleep transistor area by clustering gates to minimize the ...
Physical synthesis is a relatively young field in Electronic Design Automation. Many published optimizations for physical synthesis end up hurting the quality of the final design,...
