The first paper proposes solving the Lagrangian dual problem using discrete gate sizes. The second paper describes accurate meta-modelling techniques applicable to IC design. The third paper suggests better wire lengths in placement are obtained using a super-linear weighting factor. The last paper shows the advantages of doing layer assignment before global routing.
