The Web proxy cache placement problem is often formulated as a classical optimization problem: place N proxies within an internetwork so as to minimize the average user response t...
Both custom IC and FPGA designs in the nanometer regime suffer from process variations. But different from custom ICs, FPGAs' programmability offers a unique design freedom t...
—A unified optimization framework is presented for simultaneous gate sizing and placement. These processes are unified using Lagrangian multipliers, which synchronize the efforts...
In this paper we describe Frontier, an FPGA placement system that uses design macro-blocks in conjuction with a series of placement algorithms to achieve highly-routable and high-...
Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are becoming increasingly important implementation platforms for digital circuits. One of the necessary requirements to effectively utilize ...
