• Initial detailed routing algorithms 

      Oliveira, André Saldanha (2021) [Dissertação]
      In this work, we present a study of the problem of routing in the context of the VLSI physical synthesis flow. We study the fundamental routing algorithms such as maze routing, A*, and Steiner tree-based algorithms, as ...
    • Modeling and simulation of device variability and reliability at the electrical level 

      Brusamarello, Lucas (2011) [Tese]
      O efeito das variações intrínsecas afetando parâmetros elétricos de circuitos fabricados com tecnologia CMOS de escala nanométrica apresenta novos desafios para o yield de circuitos integrados. Este trabalho apresenta ...
    • A new quadratic formulation for incremental timing-driven placement 

      Fogaça, Mateus Paiva (2016) [Dissertação]
      The interconnection delay is a dominant factor for achieving timing closure in nanoCMOS circuits. During physical synthesis, placement aims to spread cells in the available area while optimizing an objective function w.r.t. ...
