Clock-tree power optimization based on RTL clock-gating
As power consumption of the clock tree in modern VLSI designs tends to dominate, measures must be taken to keep it under control. This paper introduces an approach for reducing cl...

Design optimization for single-event upset robustness using simultaneous dual-VDD and sizing techniques
An optimization algorithm for the design of combinational circuits that are robust to single-event upsets (SEUs) is described. A simple, highly accurate model for the SEU robustne...

Timing optimization by restructuring long combinatorial paths
—We present an implementation of an algorithm for constructing provably fast circuits for a class of Boolean functions with input signals that have individual starting times. We ...
