Academic Clustering and Placement Tools for Modern Field-Programmable Gate Array Architectures Daniele Giuseppe Paladino Masters of Applied Science Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Toronto 2008 Abstract Academic tools have been used in many research studies to investigate Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) architecture, but these tools are not sufficiently flexible to represent modern commercial devices. This thesis describes two new tools, the Dynamic Clusterer (DC) and the Dynamic Placer (DP) that perform the clustering and placement steps in the FPGA CAD flow. These tools are developed in direct extension of the popular Versatile Place and Route (VPR) academic tools. We describe the changes that are necessary to the traditional tools in order to model modern devices, and provide experimental results that show the quality of the algorithms achieved is similar to a commercial CAD tool, Quartus II. Finally, a small number of research experiments were investigated using the clustering and placement tools created to demonstrate the practical use of these tools for academic research studies of FPGA CAD tools. |
