Functional Reactive Programming, or FRP, is a general framework for programming hybrid systems in a high-level, declarative manner. The key ideas in FRP are its notions of behavio...
In this paper, we formulate the problem of topology constrained rectilinear block packing in layout reuse. A speci c class of rectilinear shaped blocks, ordered convex rectilinear...
The constraint paradigm provides powerful concepts to represent and solve different kinds of planning problems, e. g. factory scheduling. Factory scheduling is a demanding optimiz...
Combinations of evolutionary based approaches with local search have provided very good results for a variety of scheduling problems. This paper describes the development of such a...
Timing exception verification has become a center of interest as incorrect constraints can lead to chip failures. Proving that a false path is valid or not is a difficult problem ...
