Abstract--As demand increases for circuits with higher performance, higher complexity, and decreased feature size, asynchronous (clockless) paradigms will become more widely used i...
—Accurate timing analysis is crucial for obtaining the optimal clock frequency, and for other design stages such as power analysis. Most methods for estimating propagation delay ...
Deep submicron technology calls for new design techniques, in which wire and gate delays are accounted to have equal or nearly equal effect on circuit behaviour. Asynchronous spee...

Optical lithography is a critical step in the semiconductor manufacturing process, and one key problem is the design of the photomask for a particular circuit pattern, given the o...
This paper describes an automatic methodology for optimizing sample point selection for using in the framework of model order reduction (MOR). The procedure, based on the maximiza...
