In this paper, we present improvements to recursive bisection based placement. In contrast to prior work, our horizontal cut lines are not restricted to row boundaries; this avoid...

Recursive partitioning based placement has a long history, but there has been little consensus on how cut sequences should be chosen. In this paper, we present a dynamic programmi...
This work focuses on congestion-driven placement of standard cells into rows in the fixed-die context. We summarize the stateof-the-art after two decades of research in recursive ...

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...

IP blocks and large macro cells are increasingly prevalent in physical design, actually causing an increase in the available free space for the dust logic. We observe that top-dow...
