Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method of pre-computing routes for nets in a region of an integrated circuit ('IC') layout. The method initially defines a set of partitioning lines for partitioning the region into a plurality of sub-regions during a routing operation. For a particular set of potential sub-regions, the method then identifies a set of routes that traverse the particular set of potential sub-regions, where at least one of the identified routes has at least one diagonal edge. The method then stores the identified routes.
