Abstract :
This paper presents the DynPack, a multi-objective clustering tool based on net connections and cluster dynamic status. DynPack have been integrated into VTR and, the post-route analysis shows that, on average, our technique is able to reduce, simultaneously, the number of complex block logics by 1%, the critical path delay by 2% and the channel width by 2% when compared to state-of-the-art.
