APlace: a general analytic placement framework
We streamline and extend APlace, the general analytic placement engine based on ideas of Naylor et al. [7] and described in [3, 4, 5]. Previous work explored the adaptability of A...

A faster implementation of APlace
APlace is a high quality, scalable analytical placer. This paper describes our recent efforts to improve APlace for speed and scalability. We explore various wirelength and densi...

An analytic placer for mixed-size placement and timing-driven placement
We extend the APlace wirelength-driven standard-cell analytic placement framework of [21] to address timing-driven and mixedsize (“boulders and dust”) placement. Compared with...

DPlace2.0: A stable and efficient analytical placement based on diffusion
Nowadays a placement problem often involves multi-million objects and excessive fixed blockages. We present a new global placement algorithm that scales well to the modern large-s...

RQL: Global Placement via Relaxed Quadratic Spreading and Linearization
This paper describes a simple and effective quadratic placement algorithm called RQL. We show that a good quadratic placement, followed by local wirelength-driven spreading can pr...
