In order to meet performance/low energy/integration requirements, parallel architectures (multithreaded cores and multi-cores) are more and more considered in the design of embedd...
Statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) has emerged as an essential tool for nanoscale designs. Monte Carlo methods are universally employed to validate the accuracy of the appr...
Traditional timing-driven placement considers only combinational delays and does not take into account the potential of subsequent sequential optimization steps. As a result, the ...
This work studies the optimality and stability of timing-driven placement algorithms. The contributions of this work include two parts: 1) We develop an algorithm for generating s...
— Today's innovations in the automotive sector are, to a great extent, based on electronics. The increasing integration complexity and stringent cost reduction goals turn E/...
