Partitioning and clustering are crucial steps in circuit layout for handling large scale designs enabled by the deep submicron technologies. Retiming is an important sequential lo...
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...
Recycling was recently proposed as a system-level design technique to facilitate the building of complex System-on-Chips (SOC) by assembling pre-designed components. Recycling all...
