These  algorithms have been implemented as part of a system that has been  used on many industrial designs. \u003cbr\u003e  The focus of \u003cem\u003eLeaf Cell and Hierarchical Compaction Techniques\u003c\/em\u003e is  three-fold. First, new ideas for compaction of leaf cells are  presented. These cells can range from small transistor-level layouts  to very large layouts generated by automatic Place and Route tools.  Second, new approaches for hierarchical pitchmatching compaction are  described and the concept of a \u003cem\u003eMinimum Design\u003c\/em\u003e is introduced. The  system for hierarchical compaction is built on top of the leaf cell  compaction engine and uses the algorithms implemented for leaf cell  compaction in a modular fashion. Third, a new representation for  designs called \u003cem\u003eVirtual Interface\u003c\/em\u003e, which allows for efficient  topological specification and representation of hierarchical layouts,  is outlined. The Virtual Interface representation binds all of the  algorithms and their implementations for leaf and hierarchical  compaction into an intuitive and easy-to-use system. \u003cbr\u003e  From the Foreword: \u003cbr\u003e  `...In this book, the authors provide a comprehensive approach to  compaction based on carefully conceived abstractions. They describe  the design of algorithms that provide true hierarchical compaction  based on linear programming, but cut down the complexity of the  computations through introduction of innovative representations that  capture the provably minimum amount of required information needed for  correct compaction. In most compaction algorithms, the complexity goes  up with the number of design objects, but in this approach, complexity  is due to the irregularity of the design, and hence is often tractable  for most designs which incorporate substantial regularity. \u003cbr\u003e  Here the reader will find an elegant treatment of the many challenges  of compaction, and a clear conceptual focus that provides a unified  approach to all aspects of the compaction task...'  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cstrong\u003eJonathan Allen, Massachusetts Institute of Technology\u003c\/strong\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781461378136\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9781461378136","offer_id":39415612768349,"sku":"9781461378136","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/9e65939d-fdac-4a0d-89a5-d04f113b988c.jpg?v=1771131761","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/leaf-cell-and-hierarchical-compaction-techniques-von-cyrus-bamji-ravi-varadarajan","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
