Algorithms for Vlsi Physical Design Automation

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.

Suitable for CS people

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.
