摘要
Allocation is one of main tasks in the high-level synthesis. It includes module , functional unit allocation, storage allocation and interconnection allocation. This paper models the allocation problem as cluster analysis and applies a new algorithm, neighbor state transition (NST) algorithm, for cluster optimization. It is proved that the algorithm produces an asymptotically global optimal solution with the upper bound on the cost function (1 + O(1/n)2-ε)F*, When F" is the cost of the optimum solution, n is the problem size and e is a positive parameter arbitrarily close to zero. The numerical examples show that the NST algorithm produces better results compared to the other known methods.

It is proved that the algorithm produces an asymptotically global optimal solution with the upper bound on the cost function (1 + O(1/n)2-ε)F*, When F' is the cost of the optimum solution, n is the problem size and e is a positive parameter arbitrarily close to zero.
