Low-power clock trees for CPUs
Clock networks contribute a significant fraction of dynamic power and can be a limiting factor in high-performance CPUs and SoCs. The need for multi-objective optimization over a l...

Cycle time and slack optimization for VLSI-chips
We consider the problem of finding an optimal clock schedule, i.e. optimal arrival times for clock signals at latches of a VLSI chip. We describe a general model which includes al...

Integrated placement and skew optimization for rotary clocking
—The clock distribution network is a key component of any synchronous VLSI design. High power dissipation and pressure volume temperature-induced variations in clock skew have st...
