With the decreasing feature sizes during VLSI fabrication and the dominance of interconnect delay over that of gates, control logic and wiring no longer have a negligible impact o...
We study a new placement problem: the reproducing placement problem (RPP). In each phase a module (or gate) is decomposed into two (or more) simpler modules. The goal is nd a \go...
In this paper we present a novel methodology for partial (re-)configuration that can be used for most bitstream configured hardware (HW). In particular low priced and not for part...
This paper describes a method to optimize the performance of data paths. It is based on bit-level arithmetic transformations, and is especially suited to optimize large adder stru...
