Optimum wire sizing of RLC interconnect with repeaters
Repeaters are often used to drive high impedance interconnects. These lines have become highly inductive and can affect signal behavior. The line inductance should therefore be co...

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...

Non-uniform clock mesh optimization with linear programming buffer insertion
Clock meshes are extremely effective at filtering clock skew from environmental and process variations. For this reason, clock meshes are used in most high performance designs. Ho...

Adaptive inter-router links for low-power, area-efficient and reliable Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures
Abstract-- The increasing wire delay constraints in deep submicron VLSI designs have led to the emergence of scalable and modular Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures. As the power ...
