— Identifying performance bottlenecks is important for microarchitects and application developers to produce high performance microprocessor designs and application software. Man...
— In this paper, we present a new interconnect delay model called Fitted Elmore delay (FED). FED is generated by approximating Hspice delay data using a curve fitting technique....

—When manufacturing nano-devices, defects are a certainty and reliability becomes a critical issue. Until now, the most pervasive methods used to address reliability, involve inj...
Closed formed expressions for buffered interconnect delay approximation have been around for some time. However, previous approaches assume that buffers are free to be placed anyw...
