On reducing the dataflow-graph hosting area.
Proc. 5th Annual European Computer Conf. CompEuro 91, pp.138-142, Bologna, Italy, May 13-16, 1991.

The paper examines the problem of mapping a dataflow program graphs onto a data-driven array with hexagonal cells. A particular mapping scheme is analyzed to show that, in general, it results in a low area utilization. An optimization method for reducing the hosting area is introduced with descriptions of two possible implementations.
