Double patterning technology (DPT) and layout migration (LM) are two closely related problems on design for manufacturability in the nanometer era. DPT decomposes a layout into two masks and applies double exposure patterning to increase pitch size and, thus, printability. In this paper, we present the first algorithm in the literature for the simultaneous layout migration and decomposition (SMD)...
