— For 65nm and below devices, even after optical proximity correction (OPC), the gate may still be non-rectangular. There are several limited works on the device and circuit char...
—One step in the verification of hard real-time systems is to determine upper bounds on the worst-case execution times (WCET) of tasks. To obtain tight bounds, a WCET analysis h...
Abstract— Double patterning lithography (DPL) is in current production for memory products, and is widely viewed as inevitable for logic products at the 32nm node. DPL decomposes...
Current-based gate modeling achieves a new level of accuracy in nanoscale design timing and signal integrity analysis. However, to generate current-based gate models requires addi...
This paper presents a methodology for accurate propagation of delay information through a gate for the purpose of static timing analysis (STA) in the presence of noise. Convention...
