— One of the bottlenecks in the recent movement of hardware synthesis from behavioral C programs is the difficulty in reasoning about runtime pointer values at compile time. The...
─ In this paper, we present Forge, an optimal algorithm for gate sizing using the Elmore delay model. The algorithm utilizes Lagrangian relaxation with a fast gradient-based pre-...
This paper describes an optimization technique able to optimize a complete wireless receiver architecture in a reasonable amount of time. The optimizer alternates between spice le...
