ComPLx: A Competitive Primal-dual Lagrange Optimization for Global Placement
We develop a projected-subgradient primal-dual Lagrange optimization for global placement, that can be instantiated with a variety of interconnect models. It decomposes the origin...

Reliability-driven layout decompaction for electromigration failure avoidance in complex mixed-signal IC designs
The negative effect of electromigration on signal and power line lifetime and functional reliability is an increasingly important problem for the physical design of integrated cir...
