5. INTRODUCTION

12. FLOORPLACEMENT

13. Floorplanning vs. Placement Placement Floor plan Characteristic Floorplanning Placement # items <100 >10.000 Items (for FPGAs) IP-Core Slice, CLB Aim Find a position for each item obj. function depends mainly on Area mainly on Wirelength Constraints Items can be positioned everywhere There is a set of possible positions
