Partitioning plays an increasingly important role in the design process of VLSI circuits and systems. There are partitioning to be solved on all levels of abstraction. The rapidly...
A 3D circuit is the stacking of regular 2D circuits. The advances on the fabrication and packaging technologies allowed interconnecting stacked 2D circuits by using 3D vias. Howeve...

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...
Simulation is still one of the most important subtasks when designing a VLSI circuit. However, more and more elements on a chip increase simulation runtimes. Especially on transis...
