Fast and exact simultaneous gate and wire sizing by Lagrangian relaxation
This paper considers simultaneous gate and wire sizing for general very large scale integrated (VLSI) circuits under the Elmore delay model. We present a fast and exact algorithm w...

Efficient and accurate gate sizing with piecewise convex delay models
We present an efficient and accurate gate sizing tool that employs a novel piecewise convex delay model, handling both rise and fall delays, for static CMOS gates. The delay model...
