An efficient approach to simultaneous transistor and interconnect sizing
In this paper, we study the simultaneous transistor and interconnect sizing (STIS) problem. We de ne a class of optimization problems as CH-posynomial programs and reveal a genera...

Minimization of dynamic and static power through joint assignment of threshold voltages and sizing optimization
We describe an optimization strategy for minimizing total power consumption using dual threshold voltage (Vth) technology. Significant power savings are possible by simultaneous a...
