Research Abstract |
The project has studied the development of a new parallel stochastic method based on biological mechanism and applied to VLSI layout. Practically speaking, we combined a genetic algorithm (GA) with immune mechanism. This combination makes it possible to search a global minimum in the cost landscape with high accuracy. The proposed method has made massive parallel computation using a parallel computer. We applied it to floorplan problems of VLSI layout. The simulation experiments verified the effectiveness and the usefulness of the proposed method.
