  • Method for determining control line routing for components of an integrated circuit
    Patent number: 6687892
    Abstract: A method for forming a structural similarity group from a netlist for use in performing a relative placement of components of an integrated circuit is described. Also described are a method for forming a relative placement of components of an integrated circuit using a structural similarity group and a method for modifying a relative placement of components of an integrated circuit by analyzing adjacent components for shared resources. In addition, methods for determining bus line routing, control line routing, and cleanup line routing for components of an integrated circuit are described.
