Free space management for cut-based placement
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...

Improved Cut Sequences for Partitioning Based Placement
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...

A Methodology for Designing Efficient On-Chip Interconnects on Well-Behaved Communication Patterns
As the level of chip integration continues to advance at a fast pace, the desire for efficient interconnects-whether on-chip or off-chip--is rapidly increasing. Traditional interc...
