Patent ID: 10409944

Abstract:
A system and method for rip-up and re-routing a global routing solution includes determining, via processing circuitry, one or more rip-up and re-route (R&R) strategies for a net; decomposing, via the processing circuitry, multiple pins of the net into a plurality of subnets; decomposing a spanning tree of the net into paths for the plurality of subnets; determining, via the processing circuitry, a probability of success of each of the R&R strategies for one of minimizing a total overflow of a global routing solution or minimizing a wire length of the global routing solution; and applying one of the R&R strategies to the net based on the determined probability of success of said each of the R&R strategies towards improving the global routing solution, wherein the global routing solution includes a plurality of spanning trees for a respective plurality of nets of a global routing system.
