    Optimal linewidth distribution minimizing average signal delay for RC limited circuits
    (Taylor & Francis, 1993) Özaktaş, Haldun M.; Goodman, J. W.
    Based on idealized interconnect scaling rules, we derive the optimal distribution of linewidths as a function of length for wire-limited layouts utilizing RC-limited interconnections. We show that the width of the wires should be chosen proportional to the cube root of their length for two-dimensional layouts and proportional to the fourth root of their length for full three-dimensional layouts so as to minimize average signal delay.
