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...
This paper approaches statistical optimization by examining gate delay variation models and optimization objectives. Most previous work on statistical optimization has focused exc...
