Placement
 

 
       SNAP Physical GUI

Overview

This is a purely block-level (no hierarchy support for now -- that would be part of a future floorplanning tool)
placement tool with integrated support for basic block level floorplanning (e.g., defining placement regions,
rows, row utilization, etc.), incremental placement updates (manual and automatic), and some additional
capabilities such as compacting/decompacting rows. The placement GUI provides intuitive browsing/editing
capability.

When combined with incremental timing analysis and optimization, it forms the core of the timing closure solution.
