One of the greatest impediments to achieving high quality placements using force-directed methods lies in the large amount of overlap initially present in these techniques. This o...
In this work we present a system for implementing the placement and routing stages in the FPGA cycle of design, into the physical design stage. We start with the ISCAS benchmarks,...
In this work, we present a genetic algorithm framework for the FPGA placement problem. This framework is constructed based on previous proposals in this domain. We implement this f...
Modern high performance processors employ advanced techniques for thermal management, which rely on accurate readings of on-die thermal sensors. As the importance of thermal effec...
Dramatic progress has been made in algorithms for placement and routing over the last 5 years, with improvements in both speed and quality. Combining placement and routing into a ...
