Abstract
In this Dissertation, we propose a framework for VLSI physical design automation. This framework is built based on object-oriented techniques and can be used in a distributed environment. To facilitate the use of this framework to develop partitioning, placement, and routing algorithms through Internet, web-computing technologies, such as Web-Start and Web Service, are applied in the framework. We first model our framework using Unified Modeling Language and develop some demonstrative examples with PDML (Physical Design Markup Language), a customized eXtensible Markup Language (XML) that helps to exchange data among web servers. Then we derive a mathematical formula for presenting the reactivity of this framework. Using this formula, we can analyze the availability of this framework and know how to improve the framework architecture and to adapt the framework to perform multilevel routing. The dynamic behaviors of the framework have also been proposed for understanding how the framework can be used to support the physical designers and general users.
