Multilevel floorplanning/placement for large-scale modules using B*-trees
We present in this paper a multilevel floorplanning/placement framework based on the B*-tree representation, called MB*-tree, to handle the floorplanning and packing for large-sca...

Closed form expressions for extending step delay and slew metrics to ramp inputs
: Recent years have seen significant research in finding closed form expressions for the delay of an RC circuit that improves upon the Elmore delay model. However, several of these...

Low-power gated bus synthesis for 3d ic via rectilinear shortest-path steiner graph
In this paper, we propose a new approach for gated bus synthesis [16] with minimum wire capacitance per transaction in three-dimensional (3D) ICs. The 3D IC technology connects di...
