In the design of highly complex, heterogeneous, and concurrent systems, deadlock detection and resolution remains an important issue. In this paper, we systematically analyze the ...

We present an efficient search strategy for satisfiability checking on circuits represented at the register-transfer-level (RTL). We use the RTL circuit structure by extending con...

Recent study shows that the existing first order canonical timing model is not sufficient to represent the dependency of the gate delay on the variation sources when processing an...

In this paper, we propose a new linear programming based timing driven placement framework for high performance designs. Our LP framework is mainly net-based, but it takes advanta...
The gain-based technology mapping paradigm has been successfully employed for finding minimum delay and minimum area mappings. However, existing gain-based technology mappers fail...
