Abstract

Predictions of path criticalities are included into a constructive timing-driven placement procedure. These predictions are periodically performed through the placement process and are interlaced with placement steps. New emerging critical paths are treated preferentially, improving convergence of the procedure, and consequently the timing of final placement is improved. Real 20K CMOS sea-of-gates designs illustrated the methodology.
