Type-matching clock tree for zero skew clock gating
Clock skew minimization is always very important in the clock tree synthesis. Due to clock gating, the clock tree may include different types of logic gates, e.g., AND gates, OR g...

FSMD partitioning for low power using simulated annealing
— It is well known that significant power savings can be obtained by disabling or shutting down parts of a circuit during idle periods. One method is to use a high level partiti...

Shielding effect of on-chip interconnect inductance
—Interconnect inductance introduces a shielding effect which decreases the effective capacitance seen by the driver of a circuit, reducing the gate delay. A model of the effectiv...
