A genetic algorithm approach for segmented channel routing in field programmable gate arrays (FPGA's) is presented in this paper. The FPGA segmented channel routing problem (F...
We first revisit a problem in the literature of genetic algorithms: arranging numbers into groups whose summed weights are as nearly equal as possible. We provide a new genetic al...
Logic duplication is an effective method for improving circuit performance. In this paper we present an algorithm named SPD that performs simultaneous placement and duplication to...
FPGA application developers often attempt to use pipelining, Cslowing and retiming to improve the performance of their designs. Unfortunately, such registered netlists present a f...
: We propose a novel evolutionary approach to the problem of timing-driven FPGA placement. The method used is evolutionary programming (EP) with incremental position encoded in the...
