—We propose a frequency-domain modeling technique with applications on the statistical timing analysis of clock mesh/grid networks. Using transmission lines to model clock mesh e...
While the increasing need for addressing process variability in sub-90nm VLSI technologies has sparkled a large body of statistical timing and optimization research, the realizati...
We have developed a new statistical timing analysis approach that does not impose any assumptions on the nature of manufacturing variability and takes into account an arbitrary mo...

This paper employs general multivariate normal distribution to develop a new efficient statistical timing analysis methodology. The paper presents the theoretical framework of the...
With deep-sub-micron (DSM) technology, statistical timing analysis becomes increasingly crucial to characterize signal transmission over global interconnect wires. In this paper, ...
Starting from a model of the within-die systematic variations using principal components analysis, a model is proposed for estimation of the parametric yield, and is then applied ...
In the way they cope with variability, present-day methodologies are onerous, pessimistic and risky, all at the same time! Dealing with variability is an increasingly important as...
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 ...
Due to increased variability trends in nanoscale integrated circuits, statistical circuit analysis has become essential. We present a novel method for post-silicon analysis that g...
