With aggressive scaling down of feature sizes in VLSI fabrication, process variation has become a critical issue in designs. We show that two necessary conditions for the "Ma...
-- Physical synthesis is a relatively young field in Electronic Design Automation. Many published optimizations for physical synthesis end up hurting the final result, often by neg...
Abstract - This paper presents a fast and accurate global routing algorithm, DpRouter, based on two efficient techniques: (1) dynamic pattern routing (Dpr), and (2) segment movemen...
