Parameter variation in integrated circuits causes sections of a chip to be slower than others. To prevent any resulting timing errors, designers have traditionally designed for th...

Synchronous circuits are typically clocked considering worst case timing paths so that timing errors are avoided under all circumstances. In the case of a pipelined processor, thi...

There is a growing concern about timing errors resulting from design marginalities and the effects of circuit aging on speed-paths in logic circuits. This paper presents a low ove...
