This paper demonstrates the problems long, lossy wires pose for VLSI design as devices shrink to deep submicron dimensions. The degree to which both repeater insertion and reverse scaling of wire sizes are required to meet GHz clock frequency projections are estimated using a detailed wire distribution and a detailed processor model (RIPE). We also show how to achieve good floorplans with repeater insertion.
