Just-in-time (JIT) compilation has been used in many applications to enable standard software binaries to execute on different underlying processor architectures. We previously in...
We present new techniques for explicit constraint satisfaction in the incremental placement process. Our algorithm employs a Lagrangian Relaxation (LR) type approach in the analyt...
In this paper, we present novel algorithms that effectively combine physical layout and early logic synthesis to improve overall design quality. In addition, we employ partitionin...
In this paper, we present the parallelization of tabu search on a network of workstations using PVM. Two parallelization strategies are integrated: functional decomposition strate...

In this paper, we present a new multipacking-tree (MP-tree) representation for macro placements to handle modern mixed-size designs with large macros and high chip utilization rate...
