Rapid increase in transistor density and operating frequency has led to the increase in power densities, exhibiting itself as a high temperature profile. The high temperature spots over an FPGA impact the power, performance, and reliability of the chip, hence should be addressed during the design process. The logic block placement is targeted as the natural starting point to address the non-uni...

To date, the best algorithms for performing placement on Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are based on Simulated Annealing (SA). Unfortunately, these algorithms are not scalable due to the long convergence time of the latter. With an aim towards developing a scalable FPGA placer we present an analytic placement method based on a near-linear net model, called star+ . The star+ model is a v...

These servers communicate over a computer network using the TCP/IP Internet Protocol. The Placer server receives from its client the description and netlist of the circuit to be generated using EDIF (Electronic Design Interchange Format). The output to its client is the mask layout of the circuit, again codified in EDIF. The concept of agents as software components which have the ability to com...

Thiobacillus ferrooxidans is found in many Alaskan and Canadian drainages contaminated by metals dissolved from placer and lode gold mines. We have examined the iron-limited growth and iron oxidation kinetics of a T. ferrooxidans isolate, AK1, by using batch and continuous cultures. Strain AK1 is an arsenic-tolerant isolate obtained from placer gold mine drainage containing large amounts of dis...

The present paper examines the functional diversity-environment relation in a placer rich tropical bay. Understanding the environmental variables that determine the biodiversity pattern will help in the effective conservation plans of coastal habitat. However, few studies have been carried out on the biodiversity-environment relation from the diverse tropical coastal ecosystem. The geographic l...

In this work we develop a new quadratic placement technique where we prematurely abort the linear system solver to save runtime. This has low impact in the placement flow due to the expand-contract phenomena intrinsic to the ICCG solver outlined in this paper. A coloring scheme for placement useful for comparing visually placement results is described. The coloring scheme then is used to create...
