We describe the capabilities of and algorithms used in a new FPGA CAD tool, Versatile Place and Route (VPR). In terms of minimizing routing area, VPR outperforms all published FPG...
High quality placement results are always produced at the cost of significant runtimes. In this paper, we study the trade-off between the overall quality and the runtime for stand...
Reconfigurable computing entails the utilization of a generalpurpose processor augmented with a reconfigurable hardware structure (usually an FPGA). Normally, a complete recon...
Placement based on simulated annealing is in dominant use in the FPGA community due to its superior quality of result (QoR). However, given the progression of FPGA device capacity...
