Language containment is a method for design verification that involves checking if the behavior of the system to be verified is a subset of the behavior of the specifications (pro...
We present a loosely coupled parallel algorithm for the placement of standard cell integrated circuits. Our algorithm is a derivative of simulated annealing. The implementation of...
{ Hierarchy plays a signicant role in the design of digital and analog circuits. At each level of the hierarchy it becomes essential to evaluate if a sub-block design is feasible ...
We present an improved data model that reflects the whole VLSI design process including bottom-up and topdown design phases. The kernel of the model is a static version concept th...
Several industrial FPGA routing architectures have been shown to have no efficient routing algorithms (unless P=NP) [3,4]. Here, we further investigate if the intractability of th...
Given a set of specifications for a targeted application, algorithm selection refers to choosing the most suitable algorithm for a given goal, among several functionally equivalen...
