† This paper describes a novel methodology to automate the design of the interconnect distribution for multistage clock circuits. We introduce two key ideas. First, a hierarchica...
Modern FPGA architectures provide ample routing resources so that designs can be routed successfully. The routing architecture is designed to handle versatile connection configur...

Power is an increasingly important design constraint for FPGAs in nanometer technologies. Because interconnect power is dominant in FPGAs, we design Vdd-programmable interconnect ...
We address the problem of minimizing power consumption in behavioral synthesis of data-dominated circuits. The complex nature of power as a cost function implies that the effects ...
