We present a new passive model reduction algorithm based on the Laguerre expansion of the time response of interconnect networks. We derive expressions for the Laguerre coefficie...
A new method for computation of timing jitter in a PLL is proposed. The computational method is based on the representation of the circuit as a linear time-varying system with mod...

Capacitance coupling can have a significant impact on gate delay in today's deep submicron circuits. In this paper we present a static timing analysis tool that calculates th...
In this paper, we propose a new approach for VLSI interconnect global routing that can optimize both congestion and delay, which are often competing objectives. Our approach provi...
: In this paper, an algorithm for simultaneous logic restructuring and placement is presented. This algorithm first constructs a set of super-cells along the critical paths and the...
