The spectral method can lead to a high quality of multi-way partition due to its ability to capture global netlist information. For spectral partition, n netlist modules are mappe...
In this paper, we study the area-balanced multi-way partitioning problem of VLSI circuits based on a new dual netlist representation named the hybrid dual netlist (HDN), and propo...
In this paper, we present a new approach that performs timing driven placement for standard cell circuits in interaction with netlist transformations. As netlist transformations a...

A priori wirelength estimation is concerned with predicting various wirelength characteristics before placement. In this work we propose a novel, accurate estimator of net lengths...
