This paper will propose a novel approach in combining Evolutionary Algorithms with symbolic techniques in order to improve the convergence of the algorithm in the presence of larg...
Fast and accurate estimation is critical for exploration of any dece in general. As we move to higher levels of abstraction, on of complete system designs at each level of abstrac...
In the field of chip design, hardware module reuse is a standard solution to the increasing complexity of chip architecture and the pressures to reduce time to market. In the abs...
Achieving design closure is one of the biggest headaches for modern VLSI designers. This problem is exacerbated by high-level design automation tools that ignore increasingly impo...
