As device size shrinks to the nanometer range, FPGAs are increasingly prone to manufacturing defects. We anticipate that the ability to tolerate multiple defects will be very impo...
As feature sizes decrease and chip sizes increase, the area and performance of chips become dominated by the interconnect. In spite of this trend, most existing synthesis systems ...
This paper attempts to quantify the optimality of FPGA technology mapping algorithms. We develop an algorithm, based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT), that is able to map a small s...

Most FPGA technology mapping approaches either target Lookup Tables (LUTs) or relatively simple Programmable Logic Blocks (PLBs). Considering networks of PLBs during technology map...

Traditional FPGA design flows have treated logic synthesis and physical design as separate steps. With the recent advances in technology, the lack of information on the physical ...
