| SESSION 16 | |||
| Special Session: The Future of Timing Closure | |||
| Chair: Charles J. Alpert - IBM Corp., Austin, TX | |||
| Organizers: Charles J. Alpert | |||
| Timing closure is far from solved, and approaches are diverging. Leading-edge methodologies cope with variability, leakage, and wiring predictability, while new "platform tools" aim for chip-level optimization, and academic research offers the promise of "single-pass" closure at long last. | |||
