False-path-aware statistical timing analysis and efficient path selection for delay testing and timing validation
We propose a false-path-aware statistical timing analysis framework. In our framework, cell as well as interconnect delays are assumed to be correlated random variables. Our tool ...

TCG-S: orthogonal coupling of P*-admissible representations for general floorplans
We extend in this paper the concept of the P-admissible floorplan representation to that of the P*-admissible one. A P*-admissible representation can model the most general floorp...
