An algorithm that remains in use at the core of many partitioning systems is the Kernighan-Lin algorithm and a variant the Fidducia-Matheysses (FM) algorithm. To understand the FM...

In this paper we present a family of multi-objective hypergraph partitioning algorithms based on the multilevel paradigm, which are capable of producing solutions in which both th...
In this paper, we study the area-balanced multi-way partitioning problem of VLSI circuits based on a new dual netlist representation named the hybrid dual netlist (HDN), and propo...
This paper describes a multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) system for the synthesis of efficient non-linear VLSI circuit modules. The EA takes the specification for a no...
