Statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) has been a popular research topic in recent years. A fundamental issue with applying SSTA in practice today is the lack of reliable and e...
The timing models used in current Static Timing Analysis tools use gate delays only for single input switching events. It is well known that the temporal proximity of signals arriv...

Variations in the semiconductor fabrication process results in variability in parameters between transistors on the same die, a problem exacerbated by lithographic scaling. The re...
Statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) has emerged as an essential tool for nanoscale designs. Monte Carlo methods are universally employed to validate the accuracy of the appr...
