Competitive queueing policies for QoS switches
We consider packet scheduling in a network providing differentiated services, where each packet is assigned a value. We study various queueing models for supporting QoS (Quality ...

Efficient and accurate gate sizing with piecewise convex delay models
We present an efficient and accurate gate sizing tool that employs a novel piecewise convex delay model, handling both rise and fall delays, for static CMOS gates. The delay model...

Low-cost single-layer clock trees with exact zero Elmore delay skew
We give the rst single-layer clock tree construction with exact zero skew according to the Elmore delay model. The previous Linear-Planar-DME method 11 guarantees a planar solutio...
