System level clock tree synthesis for power optimization
The clock tree is the interconnect net on Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) with the heaviest load and consumes up to 40% of the overall power budget. Substantial savings of the overall powe...

Clock-tree power optimization based on RTL clock-gating
As power consumption of the clock tree in modern VLSI designs tends to dominate, measures must be taken to keep it under control. This paper introduces an approach for reducing cl...

Type-matching clock tree for zero skew clock gating
Clock skew minimization is always very important in the clock tree synthesis. Due to clock gating, the clock tree may include different types of logic gates, e.g., AND gates, OR g...

A Heuristic for Clock Selection in High-Level Synthesis
Clock selection has a significant impact on the performance and quality of designs in high-level synthesis. In most synthesis systems, a convenient value of the clock is chosen or...
