On optimal physical synthesis of sleep transistors
Considering the voltage drop constraint over a distributed model for power/ground (P/G) network, we study the following two problems for physical synthesis of sleep transistors: t...

Almost optimum placement legalization by minimum cost flow and dynamic programming
VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...

Recursive bisection based mixed block placement
Many current designs contain a large number of standard cells intermixed with larger macro blocks. The range of size in these “mixed block” designs complicates the placement p...

Implementation and extensibility of an analytic placer
Automated cell placement is a critical problem in VLSI physical design. New analytical placement methods that simultaneously spread cells and optimize wirelength have recently rec...
