Abstract— While numerous prior studies focused on performance and energy optimizations for caches, their interactions have received much less attention. This paper studies this i...
Global placement of hypergraphs is critical in the top-down placement of large timing-driven designs 10, 16 . Placement quality is evaluated in terms of the half-perimeter wirelen...
Symbolic debuggers are system development tools that can accelerate the validation speed of behavioral specifications by allowing a user to interact with an executing code at the ...
Multilevel Fiduccia-Mattheyses MLFM hypergraph partitioning 3, 22, 24 is a fundamental optimization in VLSI CAD physical design. The leading implementation, hMetis 23 , has sinc...
