On metrics for comparing interconnect estimation methods for FPGAs.

Interconnect management is a critical design issue for large field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) based designs. One of the most important issues for planning interconnection is the ability to reliably and efficiently predict the interconnect requirements of a given design on a given FPGA architect...
