We describe a new constructive multilevel logic synthesis system that integrates the traditionally separate technology-independent and technology-dependent stages of modern synthe...
Abstract. The divisive MinMaxCut algorithm of Ding et al. [3] produces more accurate clustering results than existing document cluster methods. Multilevel algorithms [4, 1, 5, 7] h...
In this paper, we study the problem of performance-driven multi-level circuit clustering with application to hierarchical FPGA designs. We first show that the performance-driven m...
Asynchronous circuits are crucial in designing low power and high performance digital systems. In this paper, we present an ecient modular partitioning approach for asynchronous c...
This paper presents a new method of selecting scan
ipops (FFs) in partial scan designs of sequential circuits. Scan FFs are chosen so that the whole circuit can be partitioned in...
