Method and apparatus for optimizing placement and routing and recording medium for recording program for optimizing placement and routing

摘要

A method for optimizing placement and routing includes producing a net list constituting circuit connection information in a hardware description language, executing logic synthesis of the net list to output a gate-level net list with optimized logic, determining clusterings based on logic gap information used for optimizing the logic, outputting clustering information expressing a particular determination, and executing placement and routing based on the gate-level net list and the clustering information.
