Grid-warping is a new placement algorithm based on a strikingly simple idea: rather than move the gates to optimize their location, we elastically deform a model of the 2-0 chip s...

In dense integrated circuit designs, management of routing congestion is essential; an over congested design may be unroutable. Many factors influence congestion: placement, rout...
Background modeling and subtraction to detect new or moving objects in a scene is an important component of many intelligent video applications. Compared to a single camera, the u...

VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...
Post-silicon validation has recently drawn designers' attention due to its increasing impacts on the VLSI design cycle and cost. One key feature of the post-silicon validatio...
