Abstract

A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for timing-driven routing for noise reduction in integrated circuit design. Responsive to performing timing driving routing on an integrated circuit design, the mechanism identifies a set of noise-critical nets in the integrated circuit design. The mechanism performs timing driven routing on the integrated circuit design with noise constraints based on the set of noise-critical nets.
