HEX: Scaling honeycombs is easier than scaling clock trees

We argue that a hexagonal grid with simple intermediate nodes is a robust alternative to buffered clock trees typically used for clock distribution in VLSI circuits, multi-core processors, and other applications that require accurate synchronization: Our HEX grid is Byzantine fault-tolerant, self-st...
