In this paper, we present novel algorithms that effectively combine physical layout and early logic synthesis to improve overall design quality. In addition, we employ partitionin...
This paper details the development, implementation, and results of Synthia, a system for the synthesis of Finite State Machines (FSMs) to field-programmable logic. Our approach us...

Structuring and mapping of a Boolean function is an important problem in the design of complex integrated circuits. Libraryaware constructive decomposition offers a solution to th...
Clock skew minimization is always very important in the clock tree synthesis. Due to clock gating, the clock tree may include different types of logic gates, e.g., AND gates, OR g...
To complement standard fitness functions, we propose "Fitness Importance" (FI) as a novel meta-heuristic for online learning systems. We define FI and show how it can be...
