چکیده

-A contemporary definition of VLSI placement problem is characterized by multiple objectives. These objectives are: timing, chip area, interconnection length and possibly others. In this paper, fuzzy logic has been used to facilitate multiobjective decision-making in placement for standard cell design style. A placement process has been defined in terms of linguistic variables, linguistic values and membership functions. Various objectives have been related by hierarchical fuzzy logic rules implemented as Object-Oriented Programming objects. It is demonstrated that a designed fuzzy logic system is flexible in selecting goals and considering tradeoffs. Details of implementation, experimental results and comparisons with other systems are provided.

Performance and Low Power Driven VLSI Standard Cell Placement using Tabu Search

We engineer a well-known optimization technique namely Tabu Search (TS) [1] for the performance and low power driven VLSI standard cell placement problem [2], [3]. The above problem is of multiobjective nature since three possibly conflicting objectives are considered to be optimized subject to the constraint of layout width. These objectives are power dissipation, timing performance, and inter...

Fuzzy Simulated Evolution for Power and Performance Optimization of Vlsi Placement

In this paper, an algorithm for VLSI standard cell placement for low power and high performance design is presented. This is a hard multiobjective combinatorial optimization problem with no known exact and efficient algorithm that can guarantee finding a solution of specific or desirable quality. Approximation iterative heuristics such as Simulated Evolution (SE) are best suited to perform an i...

Design and evaluation of two distributed methods for sensors placement in Wireless Sensor Networks

Adequate coverage is one of the main problems for distributed wireless sensor networks and The effectiveness of that highly depends on the sensor deployment scheme. Given a finite number of sensors, optimizing the sensor deployment will provide sufficient sensor coverage and save power of sensors for movement to target location to adequate coverage. In this paper, we apply fuzzy logic system to...
