In this paper, we present a new multi-packing tree (MP-tree) representation for macro placement to handle mixed-size designs. Based on binary trees, the MP-tree is very efficient,...
Power dissipation is quickly becoming one of the most important limiters in nanometer IC design for leakage increases exponentially as the technology scaling down. However, power ...
—The design of a wireless local area network (WLAN) has an important issue of determining the optimal placement of access points (APs) and assignment of channels to them. WLAN se...
: In this paper, the RCPSP (Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem) is solved using a linear programming model. Each activity may or may not be preemptive. Each variable i...
– Many embedded system designs usually impose (hard) read-time constraints on tasks. Thus, computing a tight upper bound of the worst case execution time (WCET) of a software is ...
