Abstract

A method of generating an integrated circuit layout comprises a step of determining a placement of standard cells selected from a standard cell library while permitting boundary conflicts in which incompatible boundary regions of standard cells are placed next to each other. After determining routing connections between the standard cells, the integrated circuit layout is generated. The generation of the integrated circuit layout includes a mapping step of mapping at least one incompatible boundary region to an alternative boundary region to resolve at least one boundary conflict.
