It was recently shown that block-circulant preconditioners applied to a conjugate gradient method used to solve structured sparse linear systems arising from 2D or 3D elliptic prob...
This paper describes an algorithm for simultaneous gate sizing and fanout optimization along the timing-critical paths in a circuit. First, a continuous-variable delay model that ...
To successfully search multiple coadaptive subcomponents in a solution, we developed a novel cooperative evolutionary algorithm based on a new computational multilevel selection f...
A method for environmental performance assessment is presented in this paper. The proposed method considers the procedure for environmental performance comparison of design altern...
A surface reconstruction technique based on minimization of the total variation of the gradient is introduced. Convergence of the method is established, and an interior-point algor...
