In this paper, we propose a new linear programming based timing driven placement framework for high performance designs. Our LP framework is mainly net-based, but it takes advanta...
Retiming is a widely investigated technique for performance optimization. It performs powerful modifications on a circuit netlist. However, often it is not clear, whether the pred...
