Simulated annealing based standard cell placement for VLSI designs has long been acknowledged as a compute-intensive process, and as a result several research efforts have been un...
Simulated Evolution (SimE) is an evolutionary metaheuristic that has produced results comparable to well established stochastic heuristics such as SA, TS and GA, with shorter runti...
Simulated annealing based standard cell placement for VLSI designs has long been acknowledged as a compute-intensive process. All previous work in parallel simulated annealing bas...
— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
: This paper discusses the parallelization of Stochastic Evolution (StocE) metaheuristic, for a distributed parallel environment. VLSI cell placement is used as an optimization pro...
