In this paper, we propose a placement method for islandstyle FPGAs, based on fast yet very good initial placement followed by refinement using ultra-low temperature Simulated Anne...
Placement is a critical component of today's physical synthesis flow with tremendous impact on the final performance of VLSI designs. However, it accounts for a significant p...

In this paper, we propose an effective algorithm flow to handle largescale mixed-size placement. The basic idea is to use floorplanning to guide the placement of objects at the gl...
Abstract— Modern advances in reconfigurable analog technologies are allowing field-programmable analog arrays (FPAAs) to dramatically grow in size, flexibility, and usefulness...
