Abstract—Interconnects (wires, buffers, clock distribution networks, multiplexers and busses) consume a significant fraction of total circuit power. In this work, we demonstrat...
The evolution of deep submicron technologies allows the development of increasingly complex Systems on a Chip (SoC). However, this evolution is rendering less viable some well-est...

This tutorial present the key aspects of design challenges and its solutions that are being experienced in VLSI design in the era of nano technology. The focus will be on design c...
For multi-gigahertz designs in nanometer technologies, data transfers on global interconnects take multiple clock cycles. In this paper, we propose a regular distributed register ...
The sustained progress of VLSI technology has altered the landscape of routing which is a major physical design stage. For timing driven routings, traditional approaches which con...
