The paper describes how these mappings can be used to apply the existing techniques and algorithms of the logic design process to the problem of design flow management, thus providing solutions for design flow specification, representation, synthesis, flow data management and flow execution, in CAD frameworks. A 'design flow' view in EDIF has been proposed. It can be used as a standard interchange format for migrating flows across frameworks.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"39 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":"128913867","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 AFAP scheduling algorithm is a path-based technique that finds the minimum number of control steps for all possible sequences of operations in the control-flow graph, under given constraints. Area requirements for functional units, such as their number and type, are translated into constraints which are then met exactly. The number of registers is also minimized. The performance optimizations included in this paper are concerned mainly with the scheduling of loops.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"4 1-2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121015476","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 is a part of the CADDY-synthesis-system (CAddy SCHeduling). The basis is a list scheduling algorithm which is controlled by a heuristic rating function. The allocated resources can be modelled in a flexible and detailed manner in order to specify component types for several different operations as well as different component types for the same operation. It is a special feature of this scheduling algorithm that the assignment of operations to component types is decided during the scheduling.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"328 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":"123312532","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 terminal-position algorithm that is described, may be used to optimize the positions of the interconnections between the interior rows and columns of cells within a module for custom module generation. The method uses river routing within the cells to virtually eliminate routing channels between the cell rows and columns while producing little or no increase in cell area. Use of this pin assignment algorithm for optimizing the interconnections between custom-synthesized cells provides a significant improvement in area usage.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"45 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":"117301058","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}

Test quality is measured based upon computed fault detectability and estimated fault coverage at a desired confidence level.

Four types of relationship existing among signal paths are distinguished, based on a classification of the degree of interdependency in the circuit.

Furthermore, under suitable conditions, bounded delay values for large hierarchical systems can be deduced using bounded delays determined for their constituent cells. Finally, the authors discuss the impact on design strategy of the hierarchical delay model presented in this paper.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"24 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":"116927530","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}

It is often convenient to work directly on such a representation for performing some operations.

The authors look at the unnesting operation on layouts to demonstrate that simple transformations of one hierarchy to an equivalent one help tremendously in improving the performance of typical operations on hierarchical layout representations, while not requiring as much memory as flattened representations.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":425087,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the European Conference on Design Automation.","volume":"1 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":"130300820","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}
