The standard cell placement problem has been extensively studied in the past twenty years. Many approaches were proposed and proven e ective in practice. However, successful place...
In this paper we present a repeater block planning algorithm for interconnect-centric floorplanning. We introduce the concept of independent feasible regions for repeaters and der...
As technology advances, more and more issues need to be considered in the placement stage, e.g., wirelength, congestion, timing, coupling. It is very hard to consider all of them ...
modules can be handled in constraint graphs efficiently. This Floorplan area minimization is an important problem because many modules have shape flexibilities during the floorplan...
