Take a look at this web page. It has a good article on Decoupling caps. I
hope it helps.

Subject: [SI-LIST] : Layout of Bypass Cap

Hi,
 
A question on bypass caps. How do I place bypass caps ? Do i connect a fat
short trace from the pad of surface mount cap to the supply pin of the IC
and then punch a via to the power plane near this pin ? Or can i place the
cap physically near the supply pin and just punch a via into the power plane
? Which approach is better ?
 
 
Thanks
Kai Siang
