This paper discusses the impact of migrating from 2-D to 3-D on floorplanning and placement. By looking at a basic formulation of graph cuboidal dual problem, we show that the 3-...
In modern IC design, the number of long on-chip wires has been growing rapidly because of the increasing circuit complexity. Interconnect delay has dominated over gate delay as te...
