Abstract

Floorplanning is the art of any physical design. A well-thought-out floorplan leads to an ASIC design with higher performance and optimum area.

A designer has a duty to create timeless design. To be timeless you have to think really far into the future, not next year, not in two years but in 20 years minimum.

Philippe Starck
