Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for determining a matched routing netlist for a semiconductor device. In a particular embodiment, a topological plan for the microelectronic device is compiled and used to calculate a population of netlists. The netlists are then dynamically modified using a genetic algorithm to generate a matched netlist for the device.
