National Benchmark Program in Microelectronic Systems Design Automation
Abstract
This is the final report of the National Benchmark Program in Microelectronic Systems Design Automation. This project was initiated on the premise that by leveraging the evolving technologies of the Internet, one can greatly improve the ad hoc benchmarking efforts of the past decade. Specifically, using the Internet, we have laid the groundwork for collaborative efforts of researchers from university and industry to engage in the following three major projects: (1) internet based benchmark data synthesis and archival workflows: conceiving and sharing new data to evaluate existing and new algorithms; (2) internet based algorithm and tool evaluation workflows: supporting not only user transparent algorithm and tool encapsulation but also adopting and adapting the proven design of experiments methodology to execute a series of collaborative and peer reviewed benchmarking experiments with existing and new algorithms; and (3) internet based statistical evaluation and results archival workflows: organizing tables of results to support various standardized forms of results evaluation and database archival of result summaries.
