– Retargetability of embedded system descriptions not only enables better exploration of the design space and evaluation of cost/performance tradeoffs but also enhances design ma...
This paper describes a form of dynamical computational system--4he ant colony---and presents an ant colony model for continuous space optimisation problems. The ant colony metapho...
This paper presents a direct performance-driven placement algorithm for analog integrated circuits. The performance specications directly drive the layout tools without intermedi...

Caching, symmetries, and search with decomposition are powerful techniques for pruning the search space of constraint problems. In this paper we present an innovative way of effi...
In this paper, we investigate the use of Description Logic (DL) for representing Product Behavioral constraints in Computer Aided Design (CAD) Systems. In an integrated design app...
