—Interconnect inductance introduces a shielding effect which decreases the effective capacitance seen by the driver of a circuit, reducing the gate delay. A model of the effectiv...
In this paper dual-K (DKCMOS) technology is proposed as a method for gate leakage power reduction. An integer linear programming (ILP) based algorithm is proposed for its optimiza...
We consider the problem of transistor sizing in a static CMOS layout to minimizethe power consumption of the circuit subject to a given delay constraint. Based on our characteriza...

This paper proposes an optimum methodology for assigning supply and threshold voltages to modules in a CMOS circuit such that the overall energy consumption is minimized for a giv...
As technology continues to scale beyond 100nm, there is a significant increase in performance uncertainty of CMOS logic due to process and environmental variations. Traditional c...
