Floorplan Evaluation with Timing-Driven Global Wireplanning, Pin Assignment and Buffer/Wire Sizing
We describe a new algorithm for floorplan evaluation using timing-driven buffered routing according to a prescribed buffer site map. Specifically, we describe a provably good mult...

Bus-Driven Floorplanning
In this paper, we present an integrated approach to floorplanning and bus planning, i.e., bus-driven floorplanning (BDF). We are given a set of circuit blocks and the bus speci...

Fast substrate noise-aware floorplanning with preference directed graph for mixed-signal SOCs
— In this paper, we introduce a novel substrate noise estimation technique during early floorplanning, based on the concept of Block Preference Directed Graph (BPDG) and the cla...
