Power dissipation is quickly becoming one of the most important limiters in nanometer IC design for leakage increases exponentially as the technology scaling down. However, power ...
With increasing process variation, binning has become an important technique to improve the values of fabricated chips, especially in high performance microprocessors where transpa...
Abstract--Technology scaling in the nanometer era has increased the transistor's susceptibility to process variations. The effects of such variations are having a huge impact ...

Sleep transistor insertion is one of today’s most promising and widely adopted solutions for controlling stand-by leakage power in nanometer circuits. Although single-cycle powe...
Abstract-- In this paper we present the Statistical Retimingbased Timing Analysis (SRTA) algorithm. The goal is to compute the timing slack distribution for the nodes in the timing...
