High Efficiency Clustering Algorithm for Standard Cell Placement
A high-efficiency clustering algorithm is presented for solving standard-cell style placement problem with very large number of cells.Compared to traditional clustering algorithms
the main feature of the presented algorithm is that an information library including all interconnect relationships between cells is built and well organized before placement
thereby endowing the clustering algorithm with characteristics of global optimality and non-redundancy computation.The clustering algorithm has been applied to a quadratic placement procedure.Experimental results show that our clustering algorithm is very perfect in both clustering quality and clustering speed
thus solves the placement problem with very large number of cells successfully.
