The hardware system is composed of subsystems connected via a global communication bus. Each subsystem contains one or more processors whose type can be chosen from a set of processor types with different properties, such as monetary cost, available memory, etc. The overall optimization objective is to minimize the sum of all processor costs. This is done using a Satisfiability Modulo Theories solver with an extension for performing binary search on input variables.} } @COMMENT{Bibtex file generated on }
