We propose a new multilevel framework for large-scale placement called MAPLE that respects utilization constraints, handles movable macros and guides the transition between global...

This paper describes a simple and effective quadratic placement algorithm called RQL. We show that a good quadratic placement, followed by local wirelength-driven spreading can pr...

—We consider the local rank-modulation scheme in which a sliding window going over a sequence of real-valued variables induces a sequence of permutations. Local rankmodulation is...

Simulation of gate circuits is an efficient method of detecting hazards and oscillations that may occur because of delays. Ternary simulation consists of two algorithms, A and B,...
This paper proposes an equation-based multi-scenario iterative robust optimization methodology for analog/mixed-signal circuits. We show that due to local circuit performance mono...
