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...

Placement of 3D ICs with Thermal and Interlayer Via Considerations
Thermal problems and limitations on interlayer via densities are important design constraints on three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), and need to be considered during g...

A robust detailed placement for mixed-size IC designs
— The rapid increase in IC design complexity and wide-spread use of intellectual-property (IP) blocks have made the so-called mixed-size placement a very important topic in recen...
