Variability in process parameters is making accurate timing analysis of nano-scale integrated circuits an extremely challenging task. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for...
This paper employs general multivariate normal distribution to develop a new efficient statistical timing analysis methodology. The paper presents the theoretical framework of the...
— As technology scales into the sub-90nm domain, manufacturing variations become an increasingly significant portion of circuit delay. As a result, delays must be modeled as sta...
