This paper presents methods of combining buffer insertion and transistor sizing into a single post-layout optimization. The proposed method considers the tradeoff between upsizing transistors and inserting buffers then chooses the solution with the lowest possible power and area cost. The proposed method is efficient and tunable in that optimality can be traded for compute time.
