We have developed a new GA hardware called GAA-I (Genetic Algorithm Accelerator-I), in which the crossover operator to be applied to each individual was dynamically selected during...
We describe a novel iterationless approach for computing the effective capacitance of an interconnect load at a driving gate output. Our new approach is considerably faster than p...
This paper presents new timing analysis algorithms for efficient state space exploration during timed circuit synthesis. Timed circuits are a class of asynchronous circuits that i...
In this paper, we propose a new tunable index scheme, called iMinMax, that maps points in high dimensional spaces to single dimension values determined by their maximum or minimu...
Domain knowledge is essential for successful problem solving and optimization. This paper introduces a framework in which a form of automatic domain knowledge extraction can be im...
