Timing budgeting under process variations is an important step in a statistical optimization flow. We propose a novel formulation of the problem where budgets are statistical ins...
— Recent advances in statistical timing analysis (SSTA) achieve great success in computing arrival times under variations by extending sum and maximum operations to random variab...
This paper solves the variation-aware on-chip decoupling capacitance (decap) budgeting problem. Unlike previous work assuming the worst-case current load, we develop a novel stocha...
Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) is one of the primary limiters of reliability lifetime in nano-scale integrated circuits. NBTI manifests itself in a gradual increase ...
Many recent techniques for timing analysis under variability, in which delay is an explicit function of underlying parameters, may be described as parameterized timing analysis. T...
