In GORDIAN, partitioning is used to constrain the movement of<br />

modules rather than reduce problem size<br />

By performing partitioning, we can iteratively impose a new<br />

set of constraints on the global optimization problem<br />

Assign modules to a particular block<br />

Partitioning is determined by<br />

Results of global placement – initial starting point<br />
