Clock distribution is one of the key limiting factors in any high speed, sub-100nm VLSI design. Unwanted clock skews, caused by variation effects like manufacturing variations, po...
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...
This paper presents a methodology for the statistical analysis of clock tree structures. It allows to accurately predict and analyze the impact of process variation on clock skew....
