CMP-aware Maze Routing Algorithm for Yield Enhancement
— Chemical-Mechanical Polishing (CMP) is one of the key steps during nanometer VLSI manufacturing process where minimum variation of layout pattern densities is desired. This pap...

Post-route optimization for improved yield using a rubber-band wiring model
This paper presents a unique approach to improve yield given a routed layout. Currently after routing has been completed and compacted, it generally proceeds to verification witho...

Multilevel full-chip routing with testability and yield enhancement
We propose in this paper a multilevel full-chip routing algorithm that improves testability and diagnosability, manufacturability, and signal integrity for yield enhancement. Two ...

On Selection of Paths for Multipath Routing
Abstract. Multipath routing schemes distribute traffic among multiple paths instead of routing all the traffic along a single path. Two key questions that arise in multipath rout...

Non-tree routing for reliability and yield improvement
We propose to introduce redundant interconnects for manufacturing yield and reliability improvement. By introducing redundant interconnects, the potential for open faults is reduc...
