With shrinking technology, the timing variation of a digital circuit is becoming the most important factor while designing a functionally reliable circuit. Gate sizing has emerged...
The effect of shield structures for local wirings of analog integrated circuits on crosstalk is determined by electromagnetic simulation. The crosstalk of parallel wirings is redu...
Abstract--This paper investigates the application of simultaneous retiming and clock scheduling for optimizing synchronous circuits under setup and hold constraints. Two optimizati...
This paper presents the novel idea of multi-placement structures, for a fast and optimized placement instantiation in analog circuit synthesis. These structures need to be generat...
Despite the impressive progress of logic synthesis in the past decade, finding the best architecture for a given circuit still remains an open and largely unsolved problem, espec...
