—For nanoscale interconnection, the scattering effect will soon become prominent due to scaling. It will increase the effective resistivity and thus interconnection delay signifi...
: As we continue miniaturization of circuits into nano-scale, interconnects have been recognized as the limiting factor for next generation of computing structures. To increase the...
To achieve minimum signal propagation delay, the nonuniform wire width routing architecture has been widely used in modern VLSI design. The non-uniform routing architecture exploi...
Recently, several algorithms for interconnect optimization via repeater insertion and wire sizing have appeared based on the Elmore delay model. Using the Devgan noise metric [6] ...
This paper presents an efficient approach to perform global interconnect sizing and spacing (GISS) for multiple nets to minimize interconnect delays with consideration of couplin...
