RQL: Global Placement via Relaxed Quadratic Spreading and Linearization
This paper describes a simple and effective quadratic placement algorithm called RQL. We show that a good quadratic placement, followed by local wirelength-driven spreading can pr...

Perimeter-degree: a priori metric for directly measuring and homogenizing interconnection complexity in multilevel placement
In this paper, we describe an accurate metric (perimeter-degree) for measuring interconnection complexity and effective use of it for controlling congestion in a multilevel framew...

A fully polynomial time approximation scheme for timing driven minimum cost buffer insertion
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...

On the Optimal Design of Triple Modular Redundancy Logic for SRAM-based FPGAs
Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) is a suitable fault tolerant technique for SRAM-based FPGA. However, one of the main challenges in achieving 100% robustness in designs protected b...
