Abstract:Synchronous very large-scale integration (VLSI) design is approaching a critical point, with clock distribution becoming an increasingly costly and complicated issue and power consumption rapidly emerging as a major concern. Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in asynchronous design techniques due to the significant potential benefits that the elimination of global synchronization may offer to issues such as clock distribution, power consumption, performance, and modularity.

“…Delays in one module may often be masked by occasional longer delays in another module, while the accumulation of delays through a chain reaction in a non-deterministic concurrent environment may have a chaotic effect on system performance. The need to evaluate the asynchronous architecture for different sub-system delays further complicates the process rendering simulation speed a crucial element [19].…”
