We describe BonnPlaceLegal, an algorithm for VLSI placement legalization. Based on a minimum-cost flow algorithm that iteratively augments flows along paths, our approach ensures that only augmentations are considered that can be realized exactly by cell movements. Hence, this method avoids realization problems that are inherent to previous flow-based legalization algorithms. As a result, it combines...
We propose a self-contained, flat, quadratic global placer that is simpler than existing placers and easier to integrate into timing-closure flows. It maintains lower-bound and upper-bound placements that converge to a final solution. The upper-bound placement is produced by a novel look-ahead legalization algorithm. Our placer SimPL outperforms mPL6, FastPlace3, NTUPlace3, APlace2, and Capo simultaneously...
