Abstract
A method of performing an optimization within a circuit layout design is provided. The method includes determining, from multiple nets of the circuit layout design, a target net that has one or more performance characteristics that are outside a range of constraints, determining, from the multiple nets, a non-critical net that has the one or more performance characteristics that are within the range of the constraints, and adjusting, by a processor, one or more of a shape and a location of one or more of the non-critical net and the target net, such that the one or more performance characteristics of the non-critical net is changed and remains within the range of the constraints.
