We present an integer-linear-programming-based approach for estimating the maximum instantaneous current through the power supply lines for CMOS circuits. It produces the exact so...
Prior work on modeling interconnects has focused on optimizing the wire and repeater design for trading off energy and delay, and is largely based on low level circuit parameters....

—Accurate timing analysis is crucial for obtaining the optimal clock frequency, and for other design stages such as power analysis. Most methods for estimating propagation delay ...
We present techniques for estimating switching activity and power consumption in register-transfer level (RTL) circuits. Previous work on this topic has ignored the presence of gl...
—While array structures are a significant source of power dissipation, there is a lack of accurate high-level power estimators that account for varying array circuit implementat...
