—The real Logarithmic Number System (LNS) allows fast and inexpensive multiplication and division but more expensive addition and subtraction as precision increases. Recent advan...
Current trends suggest that the number of memory chips per processor chip will increase at least a factor of ten in seven years. This will make DRAM cost, the space and the power i...
Floating-point Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication (SpMXV) is a key computational kernel in scientific and engineering applications. The poor data locality of sparse matrices sig...
The wire length estimation is the bottleneck of packing based block placers. To cope with this problem, we present a fast wire length estimation method in this paper. The key idea...
The development of grid algorithms is frequently hampered by limited means to describe topologies and lack of support for the invasive composition of legacy components in order to...
