In this work we improve top-down min-cut placers in the context of timing closure. Using the concept of boosting factors, we adjust net weights according to net spans, so as to re...
We introduce (1/r)-cuttings for collections of surfaces in 3-space that are sensitive to an additional collection of curves. Specifically, let S be a set of n surfaces in R3 of c...
We show that we can maintain up to polylogarithmic edge connectivity for a fully-dynamic graph in ~O(pn) time per edge insertion or deletion. Within logarithmic factors, this matc...
In this paper, we present a randomized algorithm for the multipacket (i.e., k − k) routing problem on an n × n mesh. The algorithm completes with high probability in at the mos...
Although touch-screen laptops are increasing in popularity, users still do not comfortably rely on touch in these environments, as current software interfaces were not designed fo...
