SESSION 30
|
| | Low-Power Physical Design
|
| | Chair: Massoud Pedram - Univ. of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA
|
| | Organizers: Chaitali Chakrabarti, Sarma Vrudhula
|
| | This session includes papers that address power optimization at the physcial level. The first two papers focus on interconnect power estimation and optimization. The first paper describes a fast accurate method for power estimation using hierarchical Petri nets. The second paper presents a method for power-delay optimal repeater insertion along interconnects. The last two papers deal with novel circuit architectures. The third paper describes a novel method for power reduction in the clock distribution network for domino logic. The last paper shows how a gate virtual ground can be introduced to acheive a significant reduction in the leakage power of SRAMs.
