DOI: 10.1109/tcad.2021.3137007
Abstract: With the increasing complexity of modern design, mixed-cell-height designs have become more popular, which makes the legalization problem more challenging. In this article, a robust negotiation-based legalizer (NBLG) is proposed to reduce average displacement and… read more here.
