We propose gate level statistical simulation to bridge the gap between the most accurate Monte Carlo SPICE simulation and the most efficient circuit level statistical static timi...
Many time series exhibit dynamics over vastly different time scales. The standard way to capture this behavior is to assume that the slow dynamics are a “trend”, to de-trend t...
As technology scales down, timing verification of digital integrated circuits becomes an increasingly challenging task due to the gate and wire variability. Therefore, statistical...
A latch-based timing analyzer is an essential tool for developing high-speed pipeline designs. As process variations increasingly influence the timing characteristics of DSM desi...

Statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) plays a key role in determining performance of the VLSI circuits implemented in state-of-the-art CMOS technology. A pre-requisite for emp...
