— Variability in the chip design process has been relatively increasing with technology scaling to smaller dimensions. Using worst case analysis for circuit optimization severely...
— As technology scales into the sub-90nm domain, manufacturing variations become an increasingly significant portion of circuit delay. As a result, delays must be modeled as sta...

— In this paper, we approach the gate sizing problem in VLSI circuits in the context of increasing variability of process and circuit parameters as technology scales into the nan...
This paper approaches statistical optimization by examining gate delay variation models and optimization objectives. Most previous work on statistical optimization has focused exc...
