Variational interconnect analysis via PMTBR

We demonstrate an algorithmfor interconnect modeling in rhe presence ofprocess variation based on extension of the truncated balanced realizationmodel reduction algorithmto multi-dimensional,parameter varying systems. Our scheme. based on a set of estimators of the variational TBR projectionspaces, is simple to implement, containsembedded error estimators, and leads to nearly optimally sized models.
