      Dadaliaris A., Tragoudaras A., Kranas G., Dossis M., Dimitriou G. (2021)
      Re-configurable hardware devices are at the forefront of technological advancement and academic research, with their most prominent delegate being Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). A typical FPGA design cycle may ...
    • Placement-based SER estimation in the presence of multiple faults in combinational logic 

      Ioannis Paliaroutis G., Tsoumanis P., Evmorfopoulos N., Dimitriou G., Stamoulis G.I. (2017)
      Susceptibility of modern ICs to radiation-induced faults constitutes a matter of great concern in the recent years. Particularly, the transient faults and their impact on the combinational logic remain an intriguing issue, ...
    • Redesign, Extensibility & Evaluation of a Placement Utilities Toolset 

      Kranas G.K., Dadaliaris A.N., Oikonomou P., Floros G., Dossis M. (2021)
      Placement is a step in the physical design associated with laying the cells of an integrated circuit in a designated area, so that timing, congestion, and utilization goals are met. Placement is a major step in physical ...
    • Variations on a Connectivity-based Legalizer for Standard Cell Design 

      Dadaliaris A.N., Kranas G.K., Oikonomou P., Dossis M. (2021)
      Legalization is considered the most significant step in a placement correlated standard cell design flow as moving cells towards legal positions to avoid overlap among them may escalate the overall wire length. Monolithic ...
