TL;DR: A negotiation-guided flow based on routing of subdroplets that obviates the explicit need for deciding when the droplets are to be manipulated, yet fully utilizing the power of droplet reshaping, splitting, and merging them to facilitate their journey is proposed.

TL;DR: This paper proposes, in this paper, a multi-level hierarchical approach that takes appropriate decisions on droplet splitting and reshaping that reduces maximum latest-arrivaltime by an average 18% and achieves 7% less average latest-Arrival-time.

TL;DR: This paper presents the first module and sensor co-placement algorithm of cyber-physical digital microfluidic biochips while considering the sensor constraint and minimizing the actuating times of electrodes to effectively minimize the bioassay completion time and satisfy the sensors constraint.

TL;DR: An algorithm that minimizes the number of checkpoints and determines their locations to cover every path in a given droplet-routing solution and a checkpoint-aware routing algorithm to enable error-recovery and to ensure physical routability of all droplets are presented.

TL;DR: An algorithm that minimizes the number of checkpoints and determines their locations to cover every path in a given droplet-routing solution is proposed, which provides reliability-hardening mechanisms for a wide class of cyber-physical DMFBs.
