Abstract--To remove the bottleneck of the interconnect
especially at semi-global and global level, performance
evaluation of local, semi global, and global interconnect is
presented in this paper based on carbon nanotube (CNT)
interconnect bundle model. For the greater length of the wire, a
methodology is presented to find the optimum insertion and size
of buffer for CNT bundle interconnects. The performance
