Design Automation of Real-Life Asynchronous Devices and Systems
The number of gates on a chip is quickly growing toward and beyond the one billion mark. Keeping all the gates running at the beat of a single or a few rationally related clocks i...

Efficient static timing analysis using a unified framework for false paths and multi-cycle paths
- We propose a framework to unify the process of false paths and multi-cycle paths in static timing analysis (STA). We use subgraphs attached with timing constraints to represent f...

A Static Timing Analysis Environment Using Java Architecture for Safety Critical Real-Time Systems
Certainly, in hard real-time systems, it is reasonable to argue that no hard real-time threads should behave in an unpredictable way and that schedulability should be guaranteed b...
