Thanks for the link! Allow me to post some central parts:


The key to IPCMOS is a distributed decentralized
clock that uses locally generated clocks to run smaller sections of
a circuit. This provides for faster sections of circuits to run at
higher cycles without needing to wait for slower operations to
catch up.

...

"Maintaining a synchronous clock across an entire chip becomes
increasingly difficult as performance rises, and the clock itself can
limit performance," said Stanley Schuster, one of the researchers
working on IPCMOS. "We believe this new design will help us
overcome those problems in future generations of high-speed
chips."
