The number of vias generated during the global routing stage is a critical factor for the yield of final circuits. However, most global routers only approach the problem by chargin...
Non-trivial linear straight-line programs over the Galois field of two elements occur frequently in applications such as encryption or high-performance computing. Finding the shor...
This paper presents a novel delay fault testing technique, which can be used as an alternative to the enhanced scan based delay fault testing, with significantly less design overh...
We introduce a new congestion driven placement algorithm for FPGAs in which the overlappingeffect of boundingboxes is taken into consideration. Experimental results show that comp...
We present a compiler algorithm called BitValue, which can discover both unused and constant bits in dusty-deck C programs. BitValue uses forward and backward dataflow analyses, ge...
