One application is in the design for testability of VLSI chips and printed circuit boards. The authors consider two different versions of a bottom-up iterative approach. In the first version they present an efficient heuristic. In an alternative version, the heuristic is used as a subroutine to an approximation (provably good) algorithm, resulting in comparably good solutions. The authors compare both approaches with the familiar top-down approach which uses a well known bisection heuristic as a subroutine. These solutions outperform the top-down partitioning approach.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128089631","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}

Since the problem is NP-complete, heuristic algorithms that yield a near optimal solution have to be employed. In this paper, a method employing a combination of simulated annealing and heuristic algorithms has been used to find a near optimal solution for both simple and multiple folding of logic arrays. The algorithms developed have been implemented in a computer program called GAMIN-SA. When compared to PLEASURE, GAMIN-SA was seen to perform as good or better with regard to quality of solution and, for the bigger arrays, it was better in terms of run-time as well (multiple folding).<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126305302","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}

They present an approach based on two models, analytical and constructive. A circuit design is recursively partitioned down to a level specified by the user thus generating a slicing tree. An analytical model is then used to predict the shape functions of the leaf subcircuits. By traversing the tree bottom up the shape function of the entire layout design can then be constructively predicted. This approach permits the user to trade off the accuracy of the prediction versus the run time of the predictor. Such a scheme is quite useful for high-level synthesis and system level partitioning. The experimental validation results are quite good, indicating an average error of the order of 5% in predicting shape functions for standard cell benchmark designs with sizes ranging from 125 to 12000 cells.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"390 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126744941","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 algorithm runs iteratively and selects the partition with the minimum total area as the final floorplan.

Timing specifications, including delays and timing constraints, are automatically generated for the cells in the design. The generated timing specifications are independent of clocking strategy, since clock and data are treated equally. Conditional constraints and paths are used to capture the transparent property of latches. The constraint rules are based on electrical/physical laws instead of assumptions about design styles. Timing errors due to clock skew and improper design are detected.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"261 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115892490","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}
