Selecting partial scan flip-flops for circuit partitioning
This paper presents a new method of selecting scan ipops (FFs) in partial scan designs of sequential circuits. Scan FFs are chosen so that the whole circuit can be partitioned in...

Techniques for crosstalk avoidance in the physical design of high-performance digital systems
Interconnectperformance does not scale well into deep submicron dimensions, and the rising number of analog effects erodes tal abstraction necessary for high levels of integration...

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...

Module selection and data format conversion for cost-optimal DSP synthesis
In high level synthesis each node of a synchronous dataflow graph (DFG) is scheduled to a specific time and allocated to a processor. In this paper we present new integer linear p...

An efficient procedure for the synthesis of fast self-testable controller structures
The BIST implementation of a conventionally synthesized controller in most cases requires the integration of an additional register only for test purposes. This leads to some seri...
