Through-silicon-via-induced obstacle-aware clock tree synthesis for 3D ICs
— In this paper, we present an obstacle-aware clock tree synthesis method for through-silicon-via (TSV)-based 3D ICs. A unique aspect of this problem lies in the fact that variou...

Peeling Away Timing Error in NetFlow Data
In this paper, we characterize, quantify, and correct timing errors introduced into network flow data by collection and export via Cisco NetFlow version 9. We find that while som...

Clock tree synthesis with data-path sensitivity matching
This paper investigates methods for minimizing the impact of process variation on clock skew using buffer and wire sizing. While most papers on clock trees ignore data-path circuit...

An Improved Clock-skew Measurement Technique for Revealing Hidden Services
The Tor anonymisation network allows services, such as web servers, to be operated under a pseudonym. In previous work Murdoch described a novel attack to reveal such hidden servi...

Optimal spacing and capacitance padding for general clock structures
Clock-tuning has been classified as important but tough tasks due to the non-convex nature caused by the skew requirements. As a result, all existing mathematical programming appr...

Hot or not: revealing hidden services by their clock skew
Location-hidden services, as offered by anonymity systems such as Tor, allow servers to be operated under a pseudonym. As Tor is an overlay network, servers hosting hidden service...

Optimal sizing of high-speed clock networks based on distributed RC and lossy transmission line models
We have proposed an e cient measure to reduce the clock skew by assigning the clock network with variable branch widths. This measure has long been used for \H" clock tree. T...
