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 ...
In this paper, we study the technology mapping problem for a novel FPGA architecture that is based on k-input single-output PLA-like cells, or, k/m-macrocells. Each cell in this a...
The demand for high-speed FPGA compilation tools has occurred for three reasons: first, as FPGA device capacity has grown, the computation time devoted to placement and routing h...
Rapid increase in transistor density and operating frequency has led to the increase in power densities, exhibiting itself as a high temperature profile. The high temperature spots...
