“…The scaling coefficients α=1.0 and β=0.2 are based on the industrial experimental data [16]. For comparison, the uniform P/G distribution which is a popular design rule of thumb to minimize package simultaneous switching noise [1,8] as well as coupling noise [6,22], and a random assignment are tested to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method. Table 2 Comparison of Different Assignment Methods Table 2 shows the results obtained by applying different methods on various benchmark circuits.…”
