Buffer insertion for clock delay and skew minimization
 Buffer insertion is an effective approach to achieve both minimal clock signal delay and skew in high speed VLSI circuit design. In this paper, we develop an optimal buffer ins...

Leakage power-aware clock skew scheduling: converting stolen time into leakage power reduction
Clock skew scheduling has been traditionally considered as a tool for improving the clock period in a sequential circuit. Timing slack is "stolen" from fast combinationa...

Post routing performance optimization via tapered link insertion and wiresizing
Most existing performance-driven and clock routing algorithms can not guarantee performance after all nets are routed. This paper proposes a new post routing approach which can re...

Physical placement driven by sequential timing analysis
Traditional timing-driven placement considers only combinational delays and does not take into account the potential of subsequent sequential optimization steps. As a result, the ...

Novel binary linear programming for high performance clock mesh synthesis
Clock mesh is popular in high performance VLSI design because it is more robust against variations than clock tree at a cost of higher power consumption. In this paper, we propose ...
