Abstract

A method, system, and computer program product for enhancing integrated circuit noise performance. The method is for arranging target wires in a target region, the method including: for each wire in the target wires, obtaining a signal jump interval with respect to each of the other wires in the target wires, wherein the signal jump interval of one wire with respect to a further wire is a time interval between occurrence of signal jump on the one wire and occurrence of signal jump on the further wire; calculating a corresponding time influence factor based on the signal jump interval, wherein the time influence factor is a decreasing function of the signal jump interval; and arranging the target wires in the target region based on the time influence factor. Coupling noise between wires may be reduced according to the technical solution of an embodiment of the present invention.
