We present new techniques for explicit constraint satisfaction in the incremental placement process. Our algorithm employs a Lagrangian Relaxation (LR) type approach in the analyt...
In this paper, we introduce a Shared Multiple Rooted XORbased Decomposition Diagram XORDD to represent functions with multiple outputs. Based on the XORDD representation, we dev...
In this work we want to discuss an algorithm for drawing line diagrams of lattices based on force directed placement (FDP). This widely used technique in graph drawing introduces f...
DPLAYOUT is a layout synthesis tool for bit-sliced datapath designs targeting standard-cell libraries. We developed fast and efficient heuristics for placing the cells in a bit-s...
As FPGA densities increase, partitioning-based FPGA placement approaches are becoming increasingly important as they can be used to provide high-quality and computationally scalab...
