Thermal resilient bounded-skew clock tree optimization methodology
The existence of non-uniform thermal gradients on the substrate in high performance IC’s can significantly impact the performance of global on-chip interconnects. This issue is...

A hierarchical decomposition methodology for multistage clock circuits
† This paper describes a novel methodology to automate the design of the interconnect distribution for multistage clock circuits. We introduce two key ideas. First, a hierarchica...

Optimal sizing of high-speed clock networks based on distributed RC and lossy transmission line models
We have proposed an e cient measure to reduce the clock skew by assigning the clock network with variable branch widths. This measure has long been used for \H" clock tree. T...

Power-Aware Routing for Well-Nested Communications On The Circuit Switched Tree
Although algorithms that employ dynamic reconfiguration are extremely fast, they need the underlying architecture to change structure very rapidly, possibly at each step of the c...
