With shrinking feature size and growing integration density in the Deep Sub-Micron technologies, the global buses are fast becoming the “weakest-links” in VLSI design. They ha...
The sustained progress of VLSI technology has altered the landscape of routing which is a major physical design stage. For timing driven routings, traditional approaches which con...
In the context of physical synthesis, large-scale standard-cell placement algorithms must facilitate incremental changes to layout, both local and global. In particular, flexible ...
