. In translation, standard cell height is set arbitrarily and the areas of cells are determined by their weights. Mega-cells (less than 1%) and corresponding interconnections are removed as they are indeed not standard cells. The following table shows the different statistics between ISPD98 partitioning circuits and these IBM-PLACE circuits..
