Abstract
A design system accesses at least one placement template for at least one structured soft block composed of a pre-defined set of cells with relative placement information for the pre-defined set of cells. The design system optimizes implementation of the at least one structured soft block by propagating constants while preserving relative placement structure of the pre-defined set of cells within each at least one structured soft block according to the respective at least one placement template accessed for the at least one structured soft block.
