Chip placement determines the locations of electronic components on a chip layout, which directly impacts performance, power, and area (PPA) metrics, and thus is a critical step in electronic design automation (EDA). As modern chips scale to accommodate millions of components, manual placement by hu…
In modern chip design, placement aims at placing millions of circuit modules, which is an essential step that significantly influences power, performance, and area (PPA) metrics. Recently, reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising technique for improving placement quality, especially ma…
The development of very large-scale integration (VLSI) technology has posed new challenges for electronic design automation (EDA) techniques in chip floorplanning. During this process, macro placement is an important subproblem, which tries to determine the positions of all macros with the aim of mi…
