This paper proposes and analyses the performance of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) using two new concepts, namely a static fitness function including a discontinuity measure and a fract...
ng certain electrical noise and power constraints.Abstract: We present a new delay model for use in logic synthesis. A traditional model treats the area of a library cell as consta...
