Multi-Objective Optimization in Physical Synthesis of Integrated Circuits

  • Book
  • © 2013

Overview

  • Describes physical synthesis optimization to include accurate transformations operating between the global and local scales
  • Integrates groups of related transformations to break circular dependencies and increase the number of circuit elements that can be jointly optimized to escape local minima
  • Derives several multi-objective optimizations from first observations through complete algorithms and experiments

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering (LNEE, volume 166)
