— In this paper, we address the problem of FSM state assignment to minimize area and power. The objectives are targeted as single/independent as well as multi-objective optimizat...
Abstract. This paper proposes a simple augmentation to texture mapping hardware which produces the correct depth buffer content and hence correct visibility when replacing complex ...
Automated cell placement is a critical problem in VLSI physical design. New analytical placement methods that simultaneously spread cells and optimize wirelength have recently rec...
Energy-efficiency and power-awareness for electronic systems have been important design issues in hardware and software implementations. We consider the scheduling of periodic ha...
: Common sub-expression elimination (CSE) serves as a useful optimization technique in the synthesis of arithmetic datapaths described at RTL. However, CSE has a limited potential ...
