A method, system and program are provided for dynamically reconfiguring a pipelined processor to operate with reduced power consumption without reducing existing performance. By monitoring or detecting the performance of individual units or stages in the processor as they execute a given workload, each stage may use high-performance circuitry until such time as a drop in the throughput performance is detected, at which point the stages are reconfigured to use lower-performance circuitry so as to meet the reduced performance throughput requirements using less power. By configuring the processor to back off from high-performance designs to low-performance designs to meet the detected performance characteristics of the executing workload warrant, power dissipation may be optimized.

A method, system, computer system, and computer program product including an algorithm that performs the constraints-based global routing step in the physical design of integrated circuits. The algorithm is based on finding routes for the entire circuit based on constraints being satisfied for the entire design. Initially, for each net, a set of possible routing solutions is determined based on applicable constraints. The possible solutions for the nets are combined to create a highly-connected “intersection graph,” with each intersection graph node representing a net. The intersection graph is partitioned based on constraints and performance criteria. An optimal solution is determined for each partition. The optimal solutions for the partitions are then combined to produce a global routing solution. The global routing solution is provided to a detailed router, which completes the routing for the design.

Power, routability and electromigration have become crucial issues in modem microprocessor designs. In high performance designs, clocks are the highest consumer of power. Arranging clocking components with regularity so as to minimize the capacitance on the clock nets can help reduce clock power, however, it may hurt performance due to some loss of flexibility in physically placing those components. The present invention provides techniques to optimally place clock components in a regular fashion so as to minimize clock power within a performance constraint. A rectangular grid is created and clock distribution structures are assigned to the grid intersection points. Latches are then located around the clock distribution structures to minimize an overall distance for connections between the latches and respective clock distribution structures. The horizontal and vertical pitches of the grid may be independently adjusted to achieve a more uniform spread of the clock distribution structures.

Power, routability and electromigration have become crucial issues in modem microprocessor designs. In high performance designs, clocks are the highest consumer of power. Arranging clocking components with regularity so as to minimize the capacitance of the clock nets can help reduce clock power, however, it may hurt performance due to some loss of flexibility in physically placing those components. The present invention provides techniques to optimally design a clock network by logically assigning clusters of the latches to respective clock distribution structures, placing clock pins at favored pin locations, and placing clock distribution structures directly underneath the clock pins. The clock distribution structures may be moved to favored distribution locations along the clock stripes, and new optimal clustering generated between the latches and the clock distribution structures. These three optimizations are preferably repeated iteratively to derive a local optimal solution for the clock network.

Roughly described, a design rule data set is developed offline from the design rules of a target fabrication process. A design rule checking method involves traversing the corners of shapes in a layout region, and for each corner, populating a layout topology database with values that depend on respective corner locations. After the layout topology database is populated, the values are compared to values in the design rule data set to detect any design rule violations. Violations can be reported in real time, while the user is manually editing the layout. Preferably corner traversal is performed using scan lines oriented perpendicularly to edge orientations, and scanning in the direction of the edge orientations. Scans stop only at corner positions and populate the layout topology database with what information can be gleaned based on the current scan line. The different scans need not reach each corner simultaneously.
