A one-sided (resp. two-sided) shift of finite type of dimension one can be described as the set of infinite (resp. bi-infinite) sequences of consecutive edges in a finite-state aut...
Reasoning about imperative programs requires the ability to track aliasing and ownership properties. We present a type system that provides this ability, by using regions, capabil...
— As Double Patterning Technology (DPT) becomes the only solution for 32-nm lithography process, we need to investigate how DPT affects the performance of a chip. In this paper, ...
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...
Recent advances in scene understanding and related tasks
have highlighted the importance of using regions to reason
about high-level scene structure. Typically, the regions are
