' An efficient assignment of tasks to the processors is imperative for achieving a fast job turnaround time in a parallel or distributed enviornment. The assignment problem is...
This paper presents an efficient modeling scheme and a partitioning heuristic for parallelizing VLSI post-placement timing optimization. Encoding the paths with timing violations...
The progress of GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) technology opens a new avenue for boosting computing power. This work is an attempt to exploit GPU for accelerating VLSI circuit opt...
The subject of this paper is the optimal design of a parallel mechanism intended for three-axis machining applications. Parallel mechanisms are interesting alternative designs in ...
In this paper we address the physical parallelization of a very efficient genetic algorithm (GA) known as gradual distributed real-coded GA (GD-RCGA). This search model naturally...
