Modern design requirements have brought additional complexities to netlists and layouts. Millions of components, whitespace resources, and fixed/movable blocks are just a few to ...
Clustering (or partitioning) is a crucial step between logic synthesis and physical design in the layout of a large scale design. A design verified at the logic synthesis level m...
Placement migration is a critical step to address a variety of postplacement design closure issues, such as timing, routing congestion, signal integrity, and heat distribution. To...
