Timing Optimization Through Clock Skew Scheduling

Timing Optimization Through Clock Skew Scheduling focuses on optimizing the timing of large-scale, high-performance, digital synchronous systems. A particular emphasis is placed on algorithms for non-zero clock skew scheduling to improve the performance and reliability of VLSI circuits. This research monograph answers the need for a broad introduction to state-of-the-art clock skew scheduling algorithms from a circuit, graph, and mathematical optimization background. A detailed description of an original quadratic programming (QP) formulation of the clock skew scheduling problem is provided along with an analysis of optimal computer solution techniques. Timing Optimization Through Clock Skew Scheduling contains sufficient detail for the advanced CAD algorithm developer, researcher, and graduate student. Furthermore, with the material provided on timing properties and optimization, those readers with less background can also benefit from this book.Kourtev, Ivan S. is the author of 'Timing Optimization Through Clock Skew Scheduling', published 2000 under ISBN 9780792377962 and ISBN 0792377966.
