Manufacturing process variability impacts the performance of synchronous logic circuits by means of its effect on both clock network and functional block delays. Typically, varia...
The existing temperature-aware clock embedding assumes a time-invariant temperature gradient. However, it is not solved how to find the worst-case temperature gradient leading to...
Clock skew scheduling has been traditionally considered as a tool for improving the clock period in a sequential circuit. Timing slack is "stolen" from fast combinationa...
Clock distribution networks are an important design issue that is highly dependent on delay variations and load imbalances, while requiring power efficiency. Existing mesh solutio...

All synchronous CMOS integrated systems have to pay some sequencing overhead. This overhead includes the skew and the jitter of the clock. It also includes the setup time and the ...
