Within-die Process Variations: How Accurately can They Be Statistically Modeled?
Within-die process variations arise during integrated circuit (IC) fabrication in the sub-100nm regime. These variations are of paramount concern as they deviate the performance of...

Clock-tree power optimization based on RTL clock-gating
As power consumption of the clock tree in modern VLSI designs tends to dominate, measures must be taken to keep it under control. This paper introduces an approach for reducing cl...
