Abstract. In this paper, we present a parallel tabu search (TS) algorithm for efficient optimization of a constrained multiobjective VLSI standard cell placement problem. The prima...
We present a loosely coupled parallel algorithm for the placement of standard cell integrated circuits. Our algorithm is a derivative of simulated annealing. The implementation of...
One of the major roadblocks in reduction of library generation cycle time is the layout generation phase. The two methods of doing automatic layout generation are synthesis and mig...
