Who Am I?

Hello there, my name is Electra, have you heard of the amazing world of Field-Coupled Nanocomputing? You can have an overview of the subject in this link.

Completely written using generic programming in C++, I serve as a library for working with the placement and routing problem in Field-Coupled Nanocomputing.

As mentioned previously, I have no defined types, it is up to you to determine what is the more appropriate for your use case, in my documentation I give some examples about this.

I was written following the project guidelines from my friend, Anubis, he is not so scary, and can guide you to follow consistent project conventions throughout your C++ project.

Functionalities

You can read the full api documentation in my gitlab pages.

For a quick summary, here's my list of features:

• Placement Management:
  • Redundancy
    • Get a placement id from a position.
    • Get a position from a placement id.
• Wire compaction:
  • (3,0),(2,0),...,(10,0) becomes (3,0),(1,0),(10,0) below the wraps,
  • The highlighted item is a direction to go until reaching the final coordinate.
  • Furthermore, you do not need to worry about this language, all the encoding from one form to another is done automatically.
• Json support:
  • Write placement and routing information using the json format.
  • Write statistics using the json format.
    • Number of wires used.
    • Area occupied exclusively by the wires.
    • Area occupied exclusively by the placements.
• Get the overall area of the placed and routed circuit at constant cost at any point in time.
