Algorithms for VLSI Design Automation  (English, Paperback, Gerez Sibih H.)

Algorithms for VLSI Design Automation is a comprehensive book for undergraduate electronics engineers. The book covers very large scale integrated circuits and their design using automation tools. It discusses the algorithms used in these design tools, and will help students in building CAD tools themselves. It gives them the foundation in mathematics and computer science required to grasp the concepts. The book includes about 50 algorithms from graph theory, layout design, simulation, logic synthesis and high-level synthesis. It is an indispensable book for all students of Computer Science or Electronic Engineering taking VLSI design automation courses and for chip designers or programmers developing CAD tools.
