Simulated Annealing- An Introduction

An Theoretical Overview

The most well-developed approach for module placement today is simulated annealing It was first introduced by Kirkpatrick in1983. It takes a lot of time, but the results are fantastic. It’s a great…

Simulated Annealing — TimberWolf (Part 1–2).

An overview to the Timber Wolf Algorithm.

Algorithm for Block Placement by Size Optimization

This approach selects the optimal block size and relative block placement repeatedly in order to eliminate wasted space and reduce total chip area. During the optimization process, channel widths are also taken into account.

Placement By Genetic Algorithm- Introduction

Force-Directed Placement Techniques

The force guided positioning algorithm was first used in the 1960s. There are several variants available today. Some are positive, and others are focused on incremental development. The coordinates of each module are considered as variables in constructive methods…
