Recursive bisection based mixed block placement
Many current designs contain a large number of standard cells intermixed with larger macro blocks. The range of size in these “mixed block” designs complicates the placement p...

Can recursive bisection alone produce routable placements?
This work focuses on congestion-driven placement of standard cells into rows in the fixed-die context. We summarize the stateof-the-art after two decades of research in recursive ...

Fractional Cut: Improved Recursive Bisection Placement
In this paper, we present improvements to recursive bisection based placement. In contrast to prior work, our horizontal cut lines are not restricted to row boundaries; this avoid...

On Whitespace and Stability in Mixed-Size Placement and Physical Synthesis
In the context of physical synthesis, large-scale standard-cell placement algorithms must facilitate incremental changes to layout, both local and global. In particular, flexible...
