Abstract
Nodes in microdevice design data are selected to form initial clusters. Typically the nodes are selected based upon the type of process to be performed on the design data. The initial clusters are then be grown, merged with other nodes, or come combination of both until the processing costs of the final clusters are compatible with the amount of resources that will be used to process the design data.
Claims19
A method of partitioning portions of a circuit design for an electronic design automation process, comprising:
- generating initial clusters of nodes from a circuit design by
- employing a computer to select a node in the circuit design, and
- employing a computer to grow a cluster of nodes from the selected node;
- employing a computer to create final clusters of nodes from the initial clusters of nodes based upon processing weight values for processing the final clusters of nodes according to the electronic design automation process;
- and
- employing a computer to partition the circuit design according to the final clusters of nodes groups.
