—In latency-insensitive design shell modules are used to encapsulate system components (pearls) in order to interface them with the given latency-insensitive protocol and dynamic...
Timing optimizations during logic synthesis has become a necessary step to achieve timing closure in VLSI designs. This often involves “shortening” all paths found in the circ...
Despite the impressive progress of logic synthesis in the past decade, finding the best architecture for a given circuit still remains an open and largely unsolved problem, espec...
Timing closure problems occur when timing estimates computed during logic synthesis do not match with timing estimates computed from the layout of the circuit. In such a situation...

Despite the impressive progress of logic synthesis in the past decade, finding the best architecture for a given circuit still remains an open problem and largely unsolved. In mos...
Don't-care conditions provide additional flexibility in logic synthesis and optimization. However, most work only focuses on the gate level because it is difficult to handle ...
