A revisit to floorplan optimization by Lagrangian relaxation
With the advent of deep sub-micron (DSM) era, floorplanning has become increasingly important in physical design process. In this paper we clarify a misunderstanding in using Lag...

A matching based decomposer for double patterning lithography
Double Patterning Lithography (DPL) is one of the few hopeful candidate solutions for the lithography for CMOS process beyond 45nm. DPL assigns the patterns less than a certain di...

Through-silicon-via aware interconnect prediction and optimization for 3D stacked ICs
Individual dies in 3D integrated circuits are connected using throughsilicon-vias (TSVs). TSVs not only increase manufacturing cost, but also incur silicon area, delay, and power ...
