Abstract—Manufacturing process variations lead to circuit timing variability and a corresponding timing yield loss. Traditional corner analysis consists of checking all process c...
As wireless LAN devices become more prevalent in the consumer electronics market, there is an ever increasing pressure to reduce their overall cost. The test cost of such devices ...
The wire length estimation is the bottleneck of packing based block placers. To cope with this problem, we present a fast wire length estimation method in this paper. The key idea...
Meeting timing constraint is one of the most important issues for modern design automation tools. This situation is exacerbated with the existence of process variation. Current hi...
The continuous minituarization of integrated circuits may reach atomic scales in a couple of decades. Some researchers have already built simple computation engines by manipulatin...
