TROY: Track Router with Yield-driven Wire Planning
In this paper, we propose TROY, the first track router with yield-driven wire planning to optimize yield loss due to random defects. As the probability of failure (POF) computed f...

Combinatorial algorithms for fast clock mesh optimization
We present a fast and efficient combinatorial algorithm to simultaneously identify the candidate locations as well as the sizes of the buffers driving a clock mesh. Due to the hi...

Low Power Multilevel Interconnect Networks Using Wave-Pipelined Multiplexed (WPM) Routing
A low power multilevel interconnect architecture that uses wave-pipelined multiplexed (WPM) interconnect routing is proposed in this paper. WPM takes advantage of existing interco...

Gate Sizing and V{t} Assignment for Active-Mode Leakage Power Reduction
Leakage current is a key factor in IC power consumption even in the active operating mode. We investigate the simultaneous optimization of gate size and threshold voltage to reduc...

Switching-activity driven gate sizing and Vth assignment for low power design
Power consumption has gained much saliency in circuit design recently. One design problem is modelled as ”Under a timing constraint, to minimize power as much as possible”. Pr...
