This paper considers simultaneous gate and wire sizing for general very large scale integrated (VLSI) circuits under the Elmore delay model. We present a fast and exact algorithm w...
– This paper addresses the problem of ordering and sizing parallel wires in a single metal layer within an interconnect channel of a given width, such that crosscapacitances are ...
Recently, several algorithms for interconnect optimization via repeater insertion and wire sizing have appeared based on the Elmore delay model. Using the Devgan noise metric [6] ...
— In this paper, we present a new interconnect delay model called Fitted Elmore delay (FED). FED is generated by approximating Hspice delay data using a curve fitting technique....

The wire sizing problem under inequality Elmore delay constraints is known to be posynomial, hence convex under an exponential variable-transformation. There are formal methods fo...
