Traditional circuit design focuses on optimizing the static critical paths no matter how infrequently these paths are exercised dynamically. Circuit optimization is then tuned to ...
Hardware acceleration is crucial in modern embedded system design to meet the explosive demands on performance and cost. Selected computation kernels for acceleration are usually ...
— While physically driven synthesis techniques have proven to be an effective method to meet tight timing constraints required by a design, the incremental placement step during ...
