This paper presents an efficient modeling scheme and a partitioning heuristic for parallelizing VLSI post-placement timing optimization. Encoding the paths with timing violations...
— We propose a character size optimization technique to enhance the throughput of maskless lithography as well as photomask manufacture. The number of electron beam shots to draw...
Late changes in silicon design (ECO) is a common although undesired practice. The need for ECO exists even in high-level design flows since bugs may occur in the specifications, ...
Many real world industrial applications involve finding a Hamiltonian path with minimum cost. Some instances that belong to this category are transportation routing problem, scan c...
