In this paper, we address the problem of simultaneous routing and buffer insertion. Recently in [12, 22], the authors considered simultaneous maze routing and buffer insertion und...

In this paper, we determine the optimal shape function for a bi-directional wire under the Elmore delay model. Given a bi-directional wire of length L, let fx be the width of the ...
We consider non-uniform wire-sizing for general routing trees under the Elmore delay model. Three minimization objectives are studied: 1) total weighted sink-delays; 2) total area...
Advances in fabrication technology have resulted in a continual shrinkage of device dimensions. This has resulted in smaller device delays, greater resistance along interconnect w...
As the process technology advances into the deep submicron era, interconnect plays a dominant role in determining circuit performance. Buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing are ...
