We propose a timing-oriented logic optimization technique called Generalized De Morgan (GDM) transform, that integrates gate resizing, net buffering and De Morgan transformation. ...
This paper presents a novel repeater insertion algorithm for the power minimization of realistic interconnect trees under given timing budgets. Our algorithm judiciously combines ...
As the process technology advances into the deep submicron era, interconnect plays a dominant role in determining circuit performance. Buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing are ...

As the process technology enters the nanometer era, reliability has become a major concern in the design and manufacturing of VLSI circuits. In this paper we focus on one reliabil...
-- The optimal buffer allocation in queueing network systems is a difficult stochastic, non-linear, integer mathematical programming problem. Moreover, the objective function, the ...
