Reducing power consumption has become a major challenge in the design and operation of today's computer systems. This chapter describes different techniques addressing this c...
Logical effort (LE) is a linear technique for modelling the delay of a circuit in a technology independent manner. It offers the potential to simplify delay models for FPGAs and g...
This paper describes the Amorphous FPGA, an innovative architecture attempting to optimally allocate logic and routing resource on per-mapping basis. Designed for high performance...
Power is an increasingly important design constraint for FPGAs in nanometer technologies. Because interconnect power is dominant in FPGAs, we design Vdd-programmable interconnect ...
How does multilevel metalization impact the design of FPGA interconnect? The availability of a growing number of metal layers presents the opportunity to use wiring in the thirddi...
