摘要
In reuse of a layout design of VSLI, we first determine the information to abstract from a given design, and then prepare a data structure to store it. Since a further optimization is required in the new environment, the data structure is required in the new environment, the data structure must be flexible to accept a change of the data. In this paper, the floorplan of a given layout is focused. It is characterized by a topographical property, called the seg-based 4-direction. The parametric BSG (PBSG) is proposed as the data structure. An elegant procedure to map the seg-based 4-direction into PBSG of the minimum size is given. Merits of using PBSG in reuse are discussed.
