Help about place and route

[triquent]

I am taking VLSI place and route course. And using cadence silicon ensemble EDA tool. Anyone can tell me where can i find some useful documents, class notes, books to learn the concepts about P&R. Also SE's notes? The instructor doesn't give us any useful and systmatic notes to study.

I think you can refer some book that introduce layout design

This is a good book for the pnr algorithm. It can help you more about the basic knowledge of EDA tools.

You can also get free libraries and materials to run a flow in your ASIC tools.
But the information is highly cadence specific.
