Abstract
A method for creating a layout for design representation of an electronic circuit with at least one port. The method includes segmenting the at least one port in the design representation into different regions, classifying the different regions of the at least one port according to timing and/or electronic and/or layout characteristics, assigning a priority for each classified region of the at least one port according to rules based on the timing and/or electronic and/or layout characteristics, and routing the design representation by accessing at least one of the classified regions of the port according to an order of the assigned priorities.
