In this paper, a new model for the semi-obnoxious facility location problem is introduced. The new model is composed of a weighted minisum function to represent the transportation...
Abstract. There are conflicting reports over whether multiple independent runs of genetic algorithms (GAs) with small populations can reach solutions of higher quality or can fin...
The cost functions used to evaluate logic synthesis transformations for FPGAs are far removed from the final speed and routability determined after placement, routing and timing a...
Many system-level design tasks (e.g. timing analysis, hardware/software partitioning and design space exploration) involve computational kernels that are intractable (usually NP-ha...
Abstract--Power analysis early in the design cycle is critical for the design of lowpower systems. With the move to system-level specifications and design methodologies, there has ...
