Abstract
A computer process for the automatic layout of a multiport, two-dimensional icrocircuit. The program provides for improved cell placement and power distribution while minimizing the overall chip area dimensions. The power distribution layout provides for the supply of power to cell rows which is independent of the peripheral power routes.
