Optimization of critical paths in circuits with level-sensitive latches
A simple extension of the critical path method is presented which allows more accurate optimization of circuits with level-sensitive latches. The extended formulation provides a s...

A Practical Gate Resizing Technique Considering Glitch Reduction for Low Power Design
We propose a method for power optimization that considers glitch reduction by gate sizing based on the statistical estimation of glitch transitions. Our method reduces not only th...

Branch, Cut, and Price: Sequential and Parallel
Branch, cut, and price (BCP) is an LP-based branch and bound technique for solving large-scale discrete optimization problems (DOPs). In BCP, both cuts and variables can be generat...

Approximation scheme for restricted discrete gate sizing targeting delay minimization
Discrete gate sizing is a critical optimization in VLSI circuit design. Given a set of available gate sizes, discrete gate sizing problem asks to assign a size to each gate such th...
