  • Abstract
    A probabilistic congestion prediction approach in a dynamic hierarchical quad-grid model is proposed to be applied in timing-constrained congestion-driven global routing (TCGR). Experimental results show that the TCGR algorithm (Yan, J.T. and Lin, S.H., Asia-Pacific Design Automation Conf., p.683-6, 2004) with the proposed probabilistic congestion prediction can use less CPU time to obtain a better timing-constrained congestion-driven global routing result for the tested benchmark circuits.
