Buffering without considering power states in multiple supply voltage designs may result in infeasible signals. POSA is the first work to handle this issue. Our buffered tree guarantees feasibility all the times, even when some parts of the design shut down. This feature is one of the key techniques to fulfill power-aware design methodology.
