Individual wire-length prediction with application to timing-driven placement.

In this paper, we address the problem of individual wire-length prediction and demonstrate its usefulness in timing-driven placement. Many researchers have observed that different placement algorithms produce different individual wire lengths. We postulate that to obtain accurate results, individual...
