Process variation has become a critical problem in modern VLSI fabrication. In the presence of process variation, buffer insertion problem under performance constraints becomes mo...
The ability to improve the yield of integrated circuits through layout modification has been recognized and several techniques for yield enhanced routing and compaction have been ...
In a CMOS combinational logic circuit, the subthreshold leakage current in the standby state depends on the state of the inputs. In this paper we present a new approach to identif...
Crosstalk noise in the clock network of digital circuits is often detected late in the design cycle, sometimes as late as after first silicon. It is therefore necessary to fix cros...

Because of the aggressive scaling of integrated circuits and the given limits of atomic scales, circuit designers have to become more and more aware of the arising reliability and...
