  • Abstract
    This paper identifies important objectives that an MBC floorplanner using flexible, arbitrary rectilinear shapes for standard cell regions should achieve including area minimization, proximity, and connectivity. It then presents an algorithm that guarantees area minimization and connectivity and gives good results with respect to proximity
