—In this paper, we present a new block budgeting algorithm which speeds up timing closure in timing driven hierarchical flows. After a brief description of the addressed flow, ...
The bigraph crossing problem, embedding the two node sets of a bipartite graph G = V0;V1;E along two parallel lines so that edge crossings are minimized, has application to placeme...

—This paper introduces a technique to measure and adjust the relative phase of on-chip high speed digital signals using a random sampling technique of inferential statistics. The...
The recent past has seen a tremendous increase in the size of design circuits that can be implemented in a single FPGA. These large design sizes significantly impact cycle time du...
