—This paper describes the acceleration of virtual ecology models using field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Our approach targets models generated by the Virtual Ecology Workb...
We have developed a new statistical timing analysis approach that does not impose any assumptions on the nature of manufacturing variability and takes into account an arbitrary mo...

Functional decomposition is a fundamental operation in logic synthesis. Prior BDD-based approaches to functional decomposition suffer from the memory explosion problem and do not...

In a synchronous finite state machine (FSM), huge current peaks are often observed at the moment of state transition. Previous low power state encoding algorithms focus on the red...
— This paper presents two contributions. The first is an incremental placement algorithm for placement-aware logic synthesis along with a proof of optimality. The algorithm can ...
