Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for optimizing microprocessor gates in a microprocessor includes receiving, via a processor, a dataset comprising a model of a plurality of gates of a microprocessor; determining, via the processor, whether a transmission line in the model, if implemented in a physical circuit, would result a signal transmission time less than a predetermined threshold time; applying to the model, via the processor, a proposed gate change to one or more of the plurality of gates; evaluating, via the processor and an area degradation based on the proposed gate change; determining, via the processor, a margin value based on the signal transmission time and an area degradation value; and making, via the processor, a gate change decision based on the margin value.

Claim (Index 18):
The computer readable storage medium of  claim 13 , wherein determining the margin value comprises:\n receiving, via the processor, a weight factor indicative of a relative criticality of at least one sector of the microprocessor with respect to one or more of signal transmission time and area degradation; identifying, via the processor, a gate sector indicative of a portion of the microprocessor affected by the proposed gate change; and weighting the margin value with the weight factor based on the gate sector.
