Its area optimization is very important in order to reduce the delay and include more functionalities to the designed chip. The VLSI cell area optimization continues to become increasingly important to the performance of VLSI design due to the accelerating of the design complexities in VLSI. Thus, this paper addresses the performance comparisons of two different types of genetic algorithm (GA) techniques for VLSI macro-cell layout area optimization by utilizing the adopted method of cell placement that is binary tree method. Two GA approaches which are simple genetic algorithm (SGA) and steady-state genetic algorithm (SSGA) have been implemented and their performances in converging to their global minimums are examined and discussed. The performances of these techniques are tested on Microelectronics Center of North Carolina (MCNC) benchmark circuit's data set. The experimental results demonstrate that both algorithms achieve acceptable area requirement compared to the slicing floorplan approach (Lin et al., 2002). However, SSGA outperforms SGA where it achieves faster convergence rate and obtains more near optimum area. 2009-08-13T07:43:52Z 2009-08-13T07:43:52Z 2008 Article p.207-212 978-0-7695-3136-6 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/wrapper.jsp?arnumber=4530477 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/6885 en Proceedings of the 2nd Asia International Conference on Modeling & Simulation (AICMS 08) Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE)
