6.3 Packing and Unpacking
6.3.1 VLSI Design
Packing is becoming more and more important in very large scale
integration, VLSI physical design because circuit size is growing rapidly
and hierarchical design with blocks is now used widely to reduce the design
complexity. Many packing problems are very complex, so most packing
algorithms use either analytical force-directed methods or perturbations
with random searches and heuristics. Packing representation thus becomes
a fundamental issue since the effi ciency of these basic operations relies on
the geometrical expression of circuit blocks.
There are two important characteristics of an efficient packing
representation.
The fi rst is the number of the combinations of a representation. ...
