Computational geometry based placement migration
Placement migration is a critical step to address a variety of postplacement design closure issues, such as timing, routing congestion, signal integrity, and heat distribution. To...

Force directed mongrel with physical net constraints
This paper describes a new force directed global placement algorithm that exploits and extends techniques from two leading placers, Force-directed [12] [26] and Mongrel [22]. It c...

RQL: Global Placement via Relaxed Quadratic Spreading and Linearization
This paper describes a simple and effective quadratic placement algorithm called RQL. We show that a good quadratic placement, followed by local wirelength-driven spreading can pr...

Congestion reduction in traditional and new routing architectures
In dense integrated circuit designs, management of routing congestion is essential; an over congested design may be unroutable. Many factors influence congestion: placement, rout...

MAPLE: multilevel adaptive placement for mixed-size designs
We propose a new multilevel framework for large-scale placement called MAPLE that respects utilization constraints, handles movable macros and guides the transition between global...
