In this paper we study the correlation between wirelength and routability for standard-cell placement problem, under the modern place-androute environment. We present a placement tool named Dragon (version 2.1), and show its ability to produce good quality placement for designs with high row utilization. Compared to an industrial placer and an academic state-of-the-art placer, Dragon can produc...

The DRAGON-Lab supports an opportunity for researchers to use Cloud technology on an open platform, but the services utilize schemes have not been defined. This paper proposed two VSaaS working models, market model and tender/contract model. A comparision testing are given and proven the proposed models are applic...

We give the first published description of the pathology and molecular findings associated with adenovirus infection in lizards in Australia. A central netted dragon (Ctenophorus nuchalis) exhibited severe necrotising hepatitis with abundant intranuclear inclusion bodies within hepatocytes and rarely within intestinal epithelial cells. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using pooled tissues yielde...

We show that overloading is NP-complete. This solves exercise 6.25 in the 1986 version of the Dragon book.
