With the increased complexity of Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits, Computer Aided Design (CAD) plays an even more important role. Top-down design methodology and layout of VLSI are reviewed. Moreover, previously published algorithms in CAD of VLSI design are outlined. In certain applications, Reed-Muller (RM) forms when implemented with AND/XOR or OR/XNOR logic have shown some attrac...

This paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) for a bilateral teleoperation system based on FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). The proposed controller combines the learning capabilities of neural networks with the inference capabilities of fuzzy logic, to adapt with dynamic variations in master and slave robots and to guarantee good prac...

modern integrated circuits consist of millions of standard cells and routing paths. in nano-scale designs, mis-prediction is a dominant problem that may diminish the quality of physical design algorithms or even result in the disruption of the convergence of the design cycle. in this paper, a new planning methodology is presented in which a master-plan of the chip is constructed at the early le...

Events of a seismic nature followed by catastrophic floods caused tsunami waves (the incidence which has increased in recent decades) have an important impact on the populations littoral regions. On coast Japan and Kamchatka, it takes nearly 20 min for to approach nearest dry land after offshore event. This paper addresses question fast simulation wave propagation mapping algorithms use field-p...

As FPGAs push ever deeper into mainstream digital design, there is an increasing desire for high-performance circuits. This thesis describes a manual editor called EVE that can assist a designer to perform manual packing, placement and pipelining of commercial FPGA circuits to achieve a meaningful increase in performance. This effort is inspired by Von Herzen’s paper [VonH97] [VonH97a], which p...

in this article, a multi-objective function for placement of distributed generation (dg) and capacitors with thetap setting of under load tap changer (ultc) transformer is introduced. most of the recent articles have paidless attention to dg, capacitor placement and ultc effects in the distribution network simultaneously. insimulations, a comparison between different modes was carried out with,...

Field-programmable gate arrays are frequently used to implement system interfaces and glue logic. However, there has been little attention given to the special problems of these types of circuits in FPGA architectures. In this paper we describe Montage, a Triptych-based FPGA designed for implementing asynchronous logic and interfacing separately-clocked synchronous circuits. Asynchronous circui...
