Recursive Function Smoothing of Half-Perimeter Wirelength for Analytical Placement
Inspired by recent success of analytical placers that use a logarithmsum-exponential (LSE) to smooth half-perimeter wirelength (HPWL), we consider in this paper two alternative sm...

Analytical minimization of half-perimeter wirelength
Global placement of hypergraphs is critical in the top-down placement of large timing-driven designs 10, 16 . Placement quality is evaluated in terms of the half-perimeter wirelen...

Placement of 3D ICs with Thermal and Interlayer Via Considerations
Thermal problems and limitations on interlayer via densities are important design constraints on three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), and need to be considered during g...

Multilevel generalized force-directed method for circuit placement
Automatic circuit placement has received renewed interest recently given the rapid increase of circuit complexity, increase of interconnect delay, and potential sub-optimality of ...

Analytical thermal placement for VLSI lifetime improvement and minimum performance variation
DSM and nanometer VLSI designs are subject to an increasingly significant thermal effect on VLSI circuit lifetime and performance variation, which can be effectively subdued by V...
