A sensitivity based placer for standard cells
We present a new timing driven method for global placement. Our method is based on the observation that similar net length reductions in the different nets that make up a path may...

Layout-Driven Timing Optimization by Generalized De Morgan Transform
We propose a timing-oriented logic optimization technique called Generalized De Morgan (GDM) transform, that integrates gate resizing, net buffering and De Morgan transformation. ...

A faster approximation scheme for timing driven minimum cost layer assignment
As VLSI technology moves to the 65nm node and beyond, interconnect delay greatly limits the circuit performance. As a critical component in interconnect synthesis, layer assignmen...

Analytical minimization of half-perimeter wirelength
Global placement of hypergraphs is critical in the top-down placement of large timing-driven designs 10, 16 . Placement quality is evaluated in terms of the half-perimeter wirelen...

Congestion Aware Layout Driven Logic Synthesis
In this paper, we present novel algorithms that effectively combine physical layout and early logic synthesis to improve overall design quality. In addition, we employ partitionin...
