Introduction
The State of GPU Computing in Electronic Design Automation
The success of very large-scale integrated (VLSI) design hinges heavily on design automation techniques to speed up the design process. Electronic design automation (EDA) software utilizes several key underlying algorithms, and an efficient implementation of these algorithms holds the key to our ability to design highly integrated, complex integrated circuits (ICs) of the future. Over the last few years, GPUs have received close attention by EDA practitioners, and significant ...
