Detailed and precise hierarchical design planning is essential to achieving closure on large designs. In this article we describe a new hierarchical design flow and its usage on a 3 million-gate chip.

With Windows 7's release just around the corner, now's a great time to get your PC ready for the new operating system. First step: separate your data onto a dedicated partition. A partition is what ...

Is there a way in 2003 to use different disk partitions on the same shared disk array as separate physical disk resources? <BR><BR>My issue is this. I'm setting up a new 2003 cluster, and I have an HP ...

With rising SoC design complexity, hierarchical backend design closure has become almost ubiquitous across the industry. Block and sub-block partitioning allow designers to exploit engineering and ...

The design complexity of sub-micron designs due to ever growing huge number of gates and interactions has made it difficult for physical design tools to handle the physical synthesis or placement and ...

Partitioning, a technology used in mainframe computers, is making its way into mid- and high-end Unix systems where corporate users employ it to isolate and protect applications from each other, ...

As usual, this blog post comes out of something I have been working on (read as: struggling with) for the past few days. The purpose is to give an overview of disk partitioning under Linux, ...
