WEDNESDAY, June 15, 2005, 4:30 PM - 6:30 PM | Room: 208AB
TOPIC AREA:  PHYSICAL CIRCUIT DESIGN (tools)

   SESSION 35
  New Approaches to Physical Design Problems
  Chair: Chung-Kuan Cheng - Univ. of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA
  Organizers: Louis Scheffer, Malgorzata Marek-Sadowska

  Traditional physical design problems are attacked by new methods and algorithms. This includes a floorplanner that considers micro-architecture, two new core placement algorithms, and an implementation of the recent X routing ideas.
