TOPIC AREA:  PHYSICAL CIRCUIT DESIGN

   SESSION 43
  Timing Issues in Placement
  Chair: Bill Halpin - Intel Corp., Santa Clara, CA
  Organizers: Carl Sechen, Phiroze Parakh

  This session presents algorithmic improvements in performance-driven physical synthesis. This includes buffering and logic replication, as well as a new timing-driven placement algorithm.
