In this paper, we present DeFer -- a fast, high-quality and nonstochastic fixed-outline floorplanning algorithm. DeFer generates a non-slicing floorplan by compacting a slicing fl...
Large search engines process thousands of queries per second over billions of documents, making query processing a major performance bottleneck. An important class of optimization...
Inspired originally by the Learnable Evolution Model(LEM) [5], we investigate LEM(ID3), a hybrid of evolutionary search with ID3 decision tree learning. LEM(ID3) involves interleav...
In this paper, we study the problem of processing multiple queries in a wireless sensor network. We focus on multiquery optimization at the base station level to minimize the numb...
Wire routing in a VLSI chip often requires minimization of wire-length as well as the number of intersections among multiple nets. Such an optimization problem is computationally ...
