SUMMARY:A Heuristic-Based Routing Methodology for Block-Level Memory Layou
 t Routability Enhancement
DESCRIPTION:Engineering Track Poster\n\nSichan Kim and Seunghwan Lee (Sams
 ung)\n\nAs the technology node shrinks, routing in memory devices is becom
 ing a challenging problem. Advanced commercial routing solutions have been
  introduced for dealing with more complex design rules and less routing re
 sources, however, routing results are still far from satisfactory. Complex
  routing patterns from those routing solutions are not meeting customer's 
 specific expectations, rather making it more difficult for engineers to ma
 nually modify it. In this paper we explore the possibility whether a simpl
 er approach, a heuristic-based routing methodology can be a better option 
 for improving routability. Our routing methodology simplifies entire routi
 ng process into two stages: global routing and local routing, and heuristi
 c-based algorithm is applied in each stage. With our routing methodology, 
 we could achieve higher routing success rate by on average 43%, with less 
 routing resource usage by on average 13% and less drc errors by on average
  68%.\n\nTopic: Back-End Design, Embedded Systems, Front-End Design, IP
