Evolvable Hardware (EHW) has been proposed as a new method for evolving circuits automatically. One of the problems appearing is that only circuits of limited size are evolvable. I...
ed Abstract We present two heuristic mesh-partitioning methods, both of which build on the multiple ant-colony algorithm in order to improve the quality of the mesh partitions. The...
Partitioning plays an increasingly important role in the design process of VLSI circuits and systems. There are partitioning to be solved on all levels of abstraction. The rapidly...
In this paper we present a parallel formulation of a multilevel k-way graph partitioning algorithm. A key feature of this parallel formulation is that it is able to achieve a high ...
