C-slow retiming (changing a design to support multiple instances of a computation) and datapath-aware placement have long been advocated by members of the FPGA synthesis community...
We consider a problem faced by train companies: How can trains be assigned to satisfy scheduled routes in a cost efficient way? Currently, many railway companies create solutions b...
Buffer insertion has become a critical step in deep submicron design, and several buffer insertion/sizing algorithms have been proposed in the literature. However, most of these m...

Abstract—Microfluidics-based biochips are revolutionizing highthroughput sequencing, parallel immunoassays, clinical diagnostics, and drug discovery. These devices enable the pre...
In this paper, we propose a placement method for islandstyle FPGAs, based on fast yet very good initial placement followed by refinement using ultra-low temperature Simulated Anne...
