Evaluation of placer suboptimality via zero-change netlist transformations
In this paper we introduce the concept of zero-change transformations to quantify the suboptimality of existing placers. Given a netlist and its placement from a placer, we formal...

Localized and Configurable Topology Control in Lossy Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) introduce new challenges to topology control due to the prevalence of lossy links. We propose a new topology control formulation for lossy WSNs that...
