In this paper we report experiences on a parallel implementation of a standard cell placement algorithm on a cluster of myrinet connected PCs. The proposed algorithm is based on a...

Traditionally, research in global placement has focused on relatively few simple metrics, such as pure wirelength or routability estimates. However, in the real world today, desig...
In this paper, we develop a mixed-size placement tool, Dragon2005, to solve large scale placement problems effectively. A top-down hierarchical approach based on min-cut partition...
In this paper we present a new method of integrating the placement and routing stages in the physical design of channel-based architectures, and present the first implementation o...
In this paper, we present a performance-driven softmacro clustering and placement method which preserves HDL design hierarchy to guide the soft-macro placement process. We also pr...
