This paper presents SafeChoice (SC), a novel clustering algorithm for wirelength-driven placement. Unlike all previous approaches, SC is proposed based on a fundamental theorem, s...
This paper presents the Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata (QCA) physical design problem, in the context of the VLSI physical design problem. The problem is divided into three subprobl...

The primary advantage of using 3D-FPGA over 2D-FPGA is that the vertical stacking of active layers reduce the Manhattan distance between the components in 3D-FPGA than when placed...

In this paper, we propose an effective algorithm flow to handle largescale mixed-size placement. The basic idea is to use floorplanning to guide the placement of objects at the gl...
