New and Exact Filling Algorithms for Layout Density Control
To reduce manufacturing variation due to chemicalmechanical polishing and to improve yield, layout must be made uniform with respect to density criteria. This is achieved by layou...

Practical iterated fill synthesis for CMP uniformity
We propose practical iterated methods for layout density control for CMP uniformity, based on linear programming, Monte-Carlo and greedy algorithms. We experimentally study the tr...
