Congestion estimation is an important issue for the success of the VLSI layout. Fast congestion estimation provides an efficient means to adjust the placement and wire planning. A...
Global Routing has been a traditional EDA problem. It has congestion elimination as the first and foremost priority. Despite of the recent development for popular rip-up and rerout...
Dramatic progress has been made in algorithms for placement and routing over the last 5 years, with improvements in both speed and quality. Combining placement and routing into a ...
