Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a system and/or methodology that facilitates controlling routing of blocks on a floor plan in an integrated circuit. A pattern collector receives a partially created routing pattern, and a comparing component makes a comparison between the at least partially created routing pattern with one or more patterns in a library of patterns. Routing is controlled based at least in part upon the comparison.
