This paper advances a new methodology based on signal-path information to resolve the problem of device-level placement for analog layout. This methodology is mainly based on three...
Treemaps are a well-known method for the visualization of attributed hierarchical data. Previously proposed Treemap layout algorithms are limited to rectangular shapes, which caus...
Different from familiar clustering objects, text documents have sparse data spaces. A common way of representing a document is as a bag of its component words, but the semantic re...
In line with Shannon's ideas, we define the entropy of FPGA reconfiguration to be the amount of information needed to configure a given circuit onto a given device. We propos...
In a hierarchical structure, a user in a security class has access to information items of another class if and only if the former class is a predecessor of latter. Based upon cry...
