A novel and very simple correct-by-construction top-down methodology for high-utilization mixed-size placement is presented. The PolarBear algorithm combines recursive cutsize-dri...
Crosstalk noise has become an important issue as technology scales down for timing and signal integrity closure. Existing works to fix crosstalk noise are mostly done at the rout...
— Cycle-accurate functional descriptions (CAFDs) are being widely adopted in integrated circuit (IC) design flows. Power estimation can potentially benefit from the inherent in...

In this paper we present a family of multi-objective hypergraph partitioning algorithms based on the multilevel paradigm, which are capable of producing solutions in which both th...
Thermal/power issues have become increasingly important with more and more transistors being put on a single chip. Many dynamic thermal/power management techniques have been propo...
