Abstract--Technology scaling in the nanometer era has increased the transistor's susceptibility to process variations. The effects of such variations are having a huge impact ...

We propose a gate resizing method for delay and power optimization that is based on statistical static timing analysis. Our method focuses on the component of timing uncertainties...
Timing margin (slack) needs to be carefully managed to ensure a satisfactory timing yield. We propose a new design flow that combines a false-path-aware gate sizing and a statisti...

Power minimization under variability is formulated as a rigorous statistical robust optimization program with a guarantee of power and timing yields. Both power and timing metrics...
