VLSI cell placement has been around for over a couple of decades in the industry and the solutions to aid this are aplenty. A wide range of efficient algorithms exists in the literature for efficiently arranging the logic cells on a VLSI chip. The Purpose of this blog is to do a comparative study and analyze all the options available. We have tried to cover 5 Algorithms i.e. (: simulated annealing, force-directed placement, rein-cut placement, placement by numerical optimization, and evolution-based placement).The first two set of algorithms owe their origin to physical laws, the third and fourth are analytical techniques, and the fifth class of algorithms is derived from biological phenomena.
