The K5 microprocessor is an AMD original design, verifying compatibility with the existing X86 architecture and software is crucial to its success in the market place. The X86 architecture has been constantly evolving over several years without any published specification. The primary mechanism for functional design verification of an X86 processor is simulation. The ability to execute a good sample set of the X86 software base on a model of the processor architecture before tapeout is key to achieving very high confidence first silicon. The Quickturn Hardware Emulation system allows us to map a model of the design onto hardware resources and execute it at high speeds. In this paper we present the emulation methodology that was jointly developed for K5 and applied successfully to meet our functional verification goals.","PeriodicalId":152966,"journal":{"name":"33rd Design Automation Conference Proceedings, 1996","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126893974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We iteratively deconstruct a pipeline by merging adjacent pipeline stages, allowing for the verification to be done in several easier steps. We present an inductive proof methodology that verifies that pipeline behaviour is preserved as the pipeline depth is reduced via deconstruction; this inductive approach is less sensitive to pipeline depth and complexity than previous approaches. Invariants are used to simplify the proof, and datapath components are abstracted using validity checking with uninterpreted functions. We present experimental results from the formal verification of a DLX five-stage pipeline using our technique.","PeriodicalId":152966,"journal":{"name":"33rd Design Automation Conference Proceedings, 1996","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128209251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fast algorithms, such as the multipole or precorrected Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) accelerated methods in programs like FASTCAP, must be combined with techniques to exploit the emerging cluster-of-workstation based parallel computers like the IBM SP2. In this paper, we examine parallelizing the precorrected FFT algorithm for 3-D capacitance extraction and present several algorithms for balancing workload and reducing communication time. Results from a prototype implementation on an eight processor IBM SP2 are presented for several test examples, and the largest of these examples achieves nearly linear parallel speed-up.","PeriodicalId":152966,"journal":{"name":"33rd Design Automation Conference Proceedings, 1996","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134526975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we present several approximation techniques for solving floorplan area minimization problems. These new techniques enable us to reduce both the time and space complexities of the previously best known approximation algorithms by more than a factor of n and n/sup 2/ for rectangular and L-shaped sub-floorplans, respectively (where n is the number of given implementations). The efficiency in the time and space complexities is critical to the applicability of such approximation techniques in floorplan area minimization algorithms.

Technology decomposition is the step that transforms arbitrary networks to this form. Typically, such decomposition schemes ignore the fact that certain circuit elements can be mapped more efficiently by treating them separately during decomposition. Multiplexers are one such category of circuit elements. They appear very naturally in circuits, in the form of datapath elements and as a result of synthesis of CASE statements in HDL specifications of control logic. Mapping them using multiplexers in technology libraries has many advantages. In this paper, we give an algorithm for optimally decomposing multiplexers, so as to minimize the delay of the network, and demonstrate its effectiveness in improving the quality of mapped circuits.","PeriodicalId":152966,"journal":{"name":"33rd Design Automation Conference Proceedings, 1996","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122039764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chip, FADIC, is applied in digital audio broadcasting (DAB) receivers. It shows that architectural synthesis tools are used for the design of new complex applications and that it supports the evolutionary development of challenging applications like DAB. It was found that the success of such tools in the design community depends on the way user interaction is supported and stimulated. Fast and accurate feedback from the synthesis tools in combination with a rich set of hints for the compiler to guide the architecture exploration are the key issues. It is shown that short time to market is possible for implementations which are an order of magnitude more efficient than alternative implementations on commercially available DSP processors.","PeriodicalId":152966,"journal":{"name":"33rd Design Automation Conference Proceedings, 1996","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115383340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
