VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...
Topology control algorithms usually reduce the number of links in a wireless network, which in turn decreases the degree of connectivity. The resulting network topology is more su...
Dedicated operating systems for embedded systems are fast being phased out due to their use of manual optimization, which provides high performance and small footprint, but also r...
Abstract. The need for supporting CSCW applications with heterogeneous and varying user requirements calls for adaptive and reconfigurable schedulers accommodating a mixture of re...
This paper describes a new force directed global placement algorithm that exploits and extends techniques from two leading placers, Force-directed [12] [26] and Mongrel [22]. It c...
