A priori wirelength estimation is concerned with predicting various wirelength characteristics before placement. In this work we propose a novel, accurate estimator of net lengths...
In the past, a priori interconnect prediction, based on Rent’s rule, has been applied mainly for technology evaluation and roadmap applications. These applications do not requir...
