Performance-driven register insertion in placement
As the CMOS technology is scaled into the dimension of nanometer, the clock frequencies and die sizes of ICs are shown to be increasing steadily [5]. Today, global wires that requ...

Placement feedback: a concept and method for better min-cut placements
The advent of strong multi-level partitioners has made topdown min-cut placers a favored choice for modern placer implementations. We examine terminal propagation, an important st...
