Aspects of the invention include a computer-implemented method of hierarchical large block synthesis (HLBS). At least a partial ring is created around an HLBS structure. The partial ring includes at least one or more of filler elements, which are engineering change order (ECO) books for adding repeaters to wire dominated nets, and decoupling capacitors of relatively large sizes. Certain areas of the HLBS structure within the partial ring that exhibit a unique characteristic are identified. Decoupling capacitors of the relatively large sizes are disposed in the certain areas. A remainder of the areas of the HLBS structure are filled with engineering change order (ECO) books and decoupling capacitors of relatively small sizes.

A method, system and computer program product are provided for implementing route generation with augmented reality. A crowd or event is analyzed and escape routes are intelligently distributed by attendee profile type or ability. Augmented Reality (AR) projections are used representing different subsets of an event population to convey the profile-specific escape routes for people to follow. The AR behavior is changed as an event situation changes.

A computer-implemented method (and associated computing system and computer program product) comprises distributing computing workloads among a plurality of processing units of a computing system. The method further comprises, responsive to detecting a reduced power supply capacity of the computing system: determining, based on historical workload information, a first workload of the computing workloads to prioritize the completion thereof, and prioritizing power delivery to a first processing unit of the plurality of processing units to which the first workload is distributed. The method further comprises powering down the first processing unit responsive to completion of the first workload.
