This paper accurately considers wire short defects and proposes an algorithm to guarantee IC chip yield rate improvement for redundant wire insertion. Without considering yield ra...
Research in floorplanning and block-packing has generated a variety of data structures to represent spatial configurations of circuit modules. Much of this work focuses on the g...
Floorplanning individual pipelined array modules of a larger overall die can yield beneficial results. Critical paths in every pipeline stage of a pipelined design are roughly equ...
We propose a timing-oriented logic optimization technique called Generalized De Morgan (GDM) transform, that integrates gate resizing, net buffering and De Morgan transformation. ...
As a prevalent constraint, sharp slew rate is often required in circuit design which causes a huge demand for buffering resources. This problem requires ultra-fast buffering techn...
