Abstract

In this paper, we propose a placement method for island-style FPGAs. This me-thod consists of three steps: recursive bi-partition with terminal propagation con-sideration, minimum-cost flow initial placement and low temperature simulated annealing optimization. Unlike the traditional partitioning-based technique that is based on min-cut partitioning, we apply ratio partitioning in each level. For each partitioning region, minimum-cost flow algorithm is used to determine the initial placement. We use low temperature simulated annealing to improve the initial placement result. Experimental results show the efficiency and effectiveness of our algorithm.
