Sequential place and route tools for FPGAs are inherently weak at addressing both wirability and timing optimizations. This is primarily due to the difficulty in predicting these ...
We present new timing and congestion driven FPGA placement algorithms with minimal runtime overhead. By predicting the post-routing critical edges and estimating congestion accura...
-- This paper presents a novel global routing algorithm, AT-PO-GR, to minimize the routing area under both congestion, timing, and RLC crosstalk constraints. The proposed algorithm...
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...
In this paper, we investigate the speed and area-efficiency of FPGAs employing “logic clusters” containing multiple LUTs and registers as their logic block. We introduce a ne...
