We demonstrate how to use placement to ameliorate the predicted repeater explosion problem caused by poor interconnect scaling. We achieve repeater count reduction by dynamically ...

In this work we improve top-down min-cut placers in the context of timing closure. Using the concept of boosting factors, we adjust net weights according to net spans, so as to re...

In this paper, we derive the X-half-perimeter wirelength (XHPWL) model for X-architecture placement and explore the effects of three different wire models on X-architecture plac...

As power consumption of the clock tree dominates over 40% of the total power in modern high performance VLSI designs, measures must be taken to keep it under control. One of the m...
