Abstract
A system for layout of a module in an integrated circuit layout pattern has a cell library and a cell placement system. The cell library includes a plurality of cells. The cell placement system is adapted to select one or more cells from the cell library and to locally place each selected cell within the module layout so that each cell pin of the selected cells and each port of the module layout occupies a unique vertical routing track within the module layout.
