Multilevel floorplanning/placement for large-scale modules using B*-trees
We present in this paper a multilevel floorplanning/placement framework based on the B*-tree representation, called MB*-tree, to handle the floorplanning and packing for large-sca...

Addressing the Timing Closure Problem by Integrating Logic Optimization and Placement
Timing closure problems occur when timing estimates computed during logic synthesis do not match with timing estimates computed from the layout of the circuit. In such a situation...

Pattern sensitive placement for manufacturability
When VLSI technology scales toward 45nm, the lithography wavelength stays at 193nm. This large gap results in strong refractive effects in lithography. Consequently, it is a huge...
