Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure address improved systems and methods for runtime efficient circuit placement location selection as described herein. An example embodiment includes identifying, for each route of the one or more routes that interconnect the terminals of a circuit design with the one or more pins of a first circuit element, a corresponding set of movement positions along said each route to generate a set of movement configurations for the first circuit element. The set of movement configurations is analyzed to generate a plurality of location clusters from the set of movement configurations, and for each location cluster of the plurality of location clusters, identifying one or more selected movement configurations within said each cluster. The one or more selected movement configurations for said each cluster to select an updated movement configuration.
