Solving Cell Placement Problem Using Harmony Search Algorithms

Cell placement is a phase in the chip design process, in which cells are assigned to physical locations. A placement algorithm is a way that satisfies the objectives and minimizes the total area while keeping enough space for routing. Cell placement is an NP-complete problem of very large size. In o...
