It's not the original paper but it has lots of information.

Thanks for posting that link.

Comparing the link with the available info for 1999 IEDM, plose note the following:
---------------------1998----------1999
16Mb RAM Speed 0.9GHz -- >1GHz
Leff -------------- 130nM--- 100nM

So the speed will improve by at least 10%. However the difference in Leff is greater than 25%.So I would expect the speed improvement to be much greater than 10%.

So I am optimistic that Coppermine will cross 1GHz on 0.18um technology. However for marketing reasons Coppermine speed ramp will probably be constrained to only match the pace of Athlon.
