Timing-driven Steiner trees are (practically) free
Traditionally, rectilinear Steiner minimum trees (RSMT) are widely used for routing estimation in design optimizations like floorplanning and physical synthesis. Since it optimize...

A flexibility aware budgeting for hierarchical flow timing closure
—In this paper, we present a new block budgeting algorithm which speeds up timing closure in timing driven hierarchical flows. After a brief description of the addressed flow, ...

An LP-based methodology for improved timing-driven placement
— A method for timing driven placement is presented. The core of the approach is optimal timing-driven relaxed placement based on a linear programming (LP) formulation. The formu...

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...

Mitigation of intra-array SRAM variability using adaptive voltage architecture
SRAM cell design is driven by the need to satisfy static noise margin, write margin and read current margin (RCM) over all cells in the array in an energy-efficient manner. These ...
