Standard Chip Estimation Methodology,
by Udupi Harisharan

Accurate chip estimation can significantly and positively impact overall packaged die cost and accelerate time from specification to product. For an architectural level estimate to correlate to final silicon, estimation models and algorithms must encapsulate a detailed understanding of cell libraries, I/Os, memories, other IP models, as well as the process and manufacturing technologies used for implementation.
