Manufacturable design requires matching of interconnects which have equal nominal dimensions. New design rules are projected to bring guarantee rules for interconnect matching. In...
At every stage in physical design, engineers are faced with many different objectives and tools to develop, optimize, and evaluate their design. Each choice of a tool or an objec...
Crosstalk aggressor alignment induces significant interconnect delay variation and needs to be taken into account in a statistical timer. In this paper, we approximate crosstalk ...
— The increasing gap between design productivity and chip complexity and the emerging Systems-On-Chip (SOC) architectural template have led to the wide utilization of reusable ha...

A fundamental difference between ASICs and FPGAs is that wires in ASICs are designed such that it matches the requirements of a particular design. Wire parameters such as: length...
