Concurrent logic restructuring and placement for timing closure
: In this paper, an algorithm for simultaneous logic restructuring and placement is presented. This algorithm first constructs a set of super-cells along the critical paths and the...

Addressing the Timing Closure Problem by Integrating Logic Optimization and Placement
Timing closure problems occur when timing estimates computed during logic synthesis do not match with timing estimates computed from the layout of the circuit. In such a situation...

Delay driven AIG restructuring using slack budget management
Timing optimizations during logic synthesis has become a necessary step to achieve timing closure in VLSI designs. This often involves “shortening” all paths found in the circ...

Optimizing Nonmonotonic Interconnect Using Functional Simulation and Logic Restructuring
The relatively poor scaling of interconnect in modern digital circuits necessitates a number of design optimizations, which must typically be iterated several times to meet the spe...

A flexibility aware budgeting for hierarchical flow timing closure
—In this paper, we present a new block budgeting algorithm which speeds up timing closure in timing driven hierarchical flows. After a brief description of the addressed flow, ...
