....are used in order to evaluate the transitions of any circuit node. The above methods can be classified according to assumed gate delay model in the following categories i) the zero delay methods [3] 6] where only the functional transitions are considered and the ii) real gate delay methods [7] [9] where both the functional and spurious transitions are taken into account. Hence, real gate delay model is needed for accurate power estimation. In addition temporal correlation, input pattem dependencies and spatial (structural) dependencies have to be considered to estimate accurate the ....
....functional and spurious transitions are taken into account. Hence, real gate delay model is needed for accurate power estimation. In addition temporal correlation, input pattem dependencies and spatial (structural) dependencies have to be considered to estimate accurate the power dissipation. In [7] the concept of the probability waveforms to estimate the average power dissipation of a combinational circuit was introduced. Given the probability waveforms of the primary inputs, a propagation algorithm of these waveforms through the circuit to evaluate the corresponding waveforms of the ....

....activity of x which includes the contribution of hazards and glitches, that is: 5) Given such waveforms at the circuit inputs and with some convenient partitioning of the circuit, the authors examine every sub circuit and derive the corresponding waveforms at the internal circuit nodes. In [45], an efficient probabilistic simulation technique is described that propagates transition waveforms at the circuit primary inputs up in the circuit and thus estimates the total power consumption (ignoring signal correlations due to the reconvergent fanout nodes) A tagged probabilistic simulation ....

....the signal probabilities provided by the user, are propagated through the circuit and the power at each node is computed based on the temporal dependence assumption. The CREST model [4] makes use of probability waveforms instead of discrete probability values. An efficient algorithm is proposed in [5] where the transition densities are propagated through the circuit and the power is calculated at each node.

....ESTimator) has proven to be very effective both in terms of accuracy and speed. We focus on the power and ground busses, and derive currents for them to be used for MTF estimation. In the interest of clarity, we will review some of the basic concepts behind this approach. The reader is referred to [7] for a more detailed description. The argument presented in [7] is that the correct current waveform to be used for MTF estimation is one that combines the effects of all possible input waveforms. By considering the set of logical waveforms allowed at the circuit inputs as a probability space ....

....the independence property. This problem is central to any circuit analysis based on a statistical representation of signals, and can usually be taken care of by using heuristics that trade off accuracy for speed [5 9] Based on our previous experience with the propagation of probability waveforms [12], we have found that, if the modules are large enough so that tightly coupled nodes (such as in latches or small cells) are kept inside the same module, then the coupling outside the modules is sufficiently low to justify an independence assumption. While this does take into account the ....
