Wire Segmenting for Improved Buffer Insertion
Buffer insertion seeks to place buffers on the wires of a signal net to minimize delay. Van Ginneken [14] proposed an optimal dynamic programming solution (with extensions propose...

Buffer design and optimization for lut-based structured ASIC design styles
The interconnection delay of pre-fabricated design style dominates circuit delay due to the heavily downstream capacitance. Buffer insertion is a widely used technique to split o...

An O(nlogn) time algorithm for optimal buffer insertion
The classic algorithm for optimal buffer insertion due to van Ginneken has time and space complexity O(n2 ), where n is the number of possible buffer positions. We present a new a...
