Tie-high and Tie-Low cells are used to connect the gate of the transistor to either power or ground. In deep sub micron processes, if the gate is connected to power/ground the transistor might be turned on/off due to power or ground bounce. The suggestion from foundry is to use tie cells for this purpose. These cells are part of standard-cell library. The cells which require Vdd, comes and connect to Tie high...(so tie high is a power supply cell)...while the cells which wants Vss connects itself to Tie-low
