In the fast-paced realm of semiconductor technology, optimizing chip design to meet the dual challenges of performance enhancement and cost reduction has emerged as a pivotal focus. A new study ...

Scratch-pad memory (SPM) has been widely used in embedded systems because it allows software-controlled data placement. By designing data placement strategies, optimal solutions with minimal memory ...

In this paper, the authors describe a method for finding an optimal placement for a system of antennas. Determining the location of multiple antennas for a single fixed or mobile platform is a ...

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — A new suite of benchmarks that should help facilitate research in IC placement, floorplanning, and routing was put to the test in a placement contest at the International ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...
