Single-threaded software applications have ceased to see signi?cant
gains in p- formance on a general-purpose CPU, even with further
scaling in very large scale integration (VLSI) technology. This is
a signi?cant problem for electronic design automation (EDA)
applications, since the design complexity of VLSI integrated
circuits (ICs) is continuously growing. In this research monograph,
we evaluate custom ICs, ?eld-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and
graphics processors as platforms for accelerating EDA algorithms,
instead of the general-purpose sing- threaded CPU. We study
applications which are used in key time-consuming steps of the VLSI
design ?ow. Further, these applications also have different degrees
of inherent parallelism in them. We study both control-dominated
EDA applications and control plus data parallel EDA applications.
We accelerate these applications on these different hardware
platforms. We also present an automated approach for accelerating
certain uniprocessor applications on a graphics processor. This
monograph compares custom ICs, FPGAs, and graphics processing units
(GPUs) as potential platforms to accelerate EDA algorithms. It also
provides details of the programming model used for interfacing with
the GPUs.
