Surfing: a robust form of wave pipelining using self-timed circuit techniques

Brian D. Winters, Mark R. Greenstreet
2003 Microprocessors and microsystems  
In previous wave pipelined designs, timing uncertainty grows monotonically as data propagates through gates and other logic elements.  ...  Our designs propagate a timing pulse along with the data values, and our logic elements have delays that decrease in the presence of the pulse.  ...  Logical effort [SSH99] is an obvious place to start. Determining a consistent effort model for preswitched gates and developing the rest of a design methodology are key areas for future work.  ...
