algorithms

I read the Chapter on clock routing and found that the
author did not do a good job on explaining about DME
algorithm. I got more confused after reading it. So,
I went to the library and checked the references
which gave me clear understanding. Usually, a book
shoud give a reader with a very clear example about
the algorithm it presents. It's was not the case for
the DME algorithm.

I found this book very helpful in gaining a deeper understanding of what the tools I use are doing. Also, the terminology that is used and explained allows me to easier communication with the CAD developers. I found the information relating to clock skew and jitter of particular value to my daily work.

Very comprehensive in VLSI physical design automation. People who major in Computer Science and want to study in VLSI is suitable to buy this book. Also people who want to develop EDA tools can buy the book.
