The optimization methods currently used are faced with big difficulties in finding better placement result. This paper studies the quadratic optimization that is frequently adopted in this field and analyzes the difficulty it faces. Meanwhile, this paper suggests a very efficient quadratic programming based optimization method. This method employs the tactic of hybrid search based on multi-space search and search space traversing to try to find the optimum or near-optimum of the problem. Experimental results show that this method can make up with the shortcomings of the current quadratic optimization used in placement to a far extent and gains much placement improvement.","PeriodicalId":431034,"journal":{"name":"2005 6th International Conference on ASIC","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114251862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper studies the approach of planning buffers during analytical placement. First, a fast and stable force-directed placement is introduced, which is averagely 1.71 times as fast as Capo8.8, a state-of-the-art placement tool, with little degradation of wire-length. Then a new model for planning buffers during placement is proposed, which can efficiently ensure the convergence of placement iterations only by modeling buffers implicitly with changed density distribution and modified connectivity weight between drivers and receivers. Also, equivalent candidate positions for buffer insertion are explored to resolve buffer overlaps.

Experiment results show that our approach could generate an optimized placement much quicker than SA based approaches. Also, the placement result could be used as an initial solution for SA-based algorithms.
