Ant System-Corner Insertion Sequence: An Efficient VLSI Hard Module Placer

Placement is important in VLSI physical design as it determines the time-to-market and chip's reliability. In this paper, a new floorplan representation which couples with Ant System, namely Corner Insertion Sequence (CIS) is proposed. Though CIS's search complexity is smaller than the s...
