A fully polynomial time approximation scheme for timing driven minimum cost buffer insertion
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...

A Proposal for Routing-Based Timing-Driven Scan Chain Ordering
Scan chain insertion can have large impact on routability, wirelength and timing. We propose a routing-driven and timing-aware methodology for scan insertion with minimum wireleng...

Floorplan Evaluation with Timing-Driven Global Wireplanning, Pin Assignment and Buffer/Wire Sizing
We describe a new algorithm for floorplan evaluation using timing-driven buffered routing according to a prescribed buffer site map. Specifically, we describe a provably good mult...
