Abstract

A system and method of designing an integrated circuit (IC) by considering a local layout effect are provided. The method of designing an IC may place instances of pre-placement cells so as to decrease occurrence of a local layout effect (LLE) causing structure. The method may extract a context of an instance from a peripheral layout of each of the placed instances to estimate an LLE of the instance, thereby analyzing a performance of the IC.
