Many recent techniques for timing analysis under variability, in which delay is an explicit function of underlying parameters, may be described as parameterized timing analysis. T...
We present an efficient optimization scheme for gate sizing in the presence of process variations. Using a posynomial delay model, the delay constraints are modified to incorporat...
A 25k gate Test Chip was designed and manufactured to evaluate different test methods for scan-designed circuits. The design of the chip, the experiment, and preliminary experimen...

Abstract — This paper defines a new diagnosis problem for diagnosing delay defects based upon statistical timing models. We illustrate the differences between the delay defect d...
In today’s deep-submicron designs, the interconnect delays contribute an increasing part to the overall performance of an implementation. Particularly when targeting field prog...
