A combined clustering and placement algorithm for FPGAs

One of the major drawbacks of reprogrammable microchips, such as field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), is an inherent speed disadvantage over ASIC technologies. To mitigate this speed disadvantage, this thesis presents a novel algorithm to improve timing performance at the possible expense of are...
