Most existing buffering algorithms neglect the impact of inductance on circuit performance, which causes large error in circuit analysis and optimization. Even for the approaches...
Electrostatic analysis of complicated molecular surfaces arises in a number of nanotechnology applications including: biomolecule design, carbon nanotube simulation, and molecular...
Statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) is emerging as a solution for predicting the timing characteristics of digital circuits under process variability. For computing the stat...

Ultra-deep submicron manufacturability impacts physical design (PD) through complex layout rules and large guardbands for process variability; this creates new requirements for ne...
We propose to introduce redundant interconnects for manufacturing yield and reliability improvement. By introducing redundant interconnects, the potential for open faults is reduc...
