In this paper, we present a very fast and accurate rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT)1 algorithm called FLUTE. The algorithm is an extension of the wirelength estimation appr...
Despite recent advances in FPGA devices and embedded cores, their deployment in commercial products remains rather limited due to practical constraints on, for example, cost, size...

Sensor network applications are generally characterized by long idle durations and intermittent communication patterns. The traffic loads are typically so low that overall idle d...
Hierarchical approach greatly facilitates large-scale chip design by hiding distracting details in low-level objects. However, the lowlevel designs have to have a global view of h...
As the process technology advances into the deep submicron era, interconnect plays a dominant role in determining circuit performance. Buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing are ...
