This paper presents a novel synthesis algorithm that reduces the area needed for implementing multiplexers on an FPGA by an average of 18%. This is achieved by reducing the number...
Performance of distributed applications largely depends on the mapping of their components on the underlying architecture. On one mponent-based approaches provide an abstraction su...
