| Abstract(in English) | Cell placement is an important phase of current FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) circuit design. However, this placement problem is NP-hard. Although nondeterministic algorithms such as Simulated Annealing(SA) are successful in slolving this problem, they are known to be slow. In this paper, we introduce a new neural network approach to placement problem of FPGA. The used network is a Kohonen self-organising map. A connection relation ship of cluster-level netlists is converted to a a set of appropriate input vectors. These vectors which have higher dimensionality are fed to the self-organizing map at random to map themselves onto a 2-dimensional plane of the regular chip. The key feature is that som algorithm perform the cell placement to minimize total connection length in the circuit. In this paper, we evaluate our placement tool using some benchmark circuits. |
