Abstract
Driven by Moore’s law, the chip design complexity is steadily increasing. Electronic Design Automation (EDA) has been able to cope with the challenging very large-scale integration process, assuring scalability, reliability, and proper time-to-market. However, EDA approaches are time and resource-demanding, and they often do not guarantee optimal solutions. To alleviate these, Machine Learning (ML) has been incorporated into many stages of the design flow, such as in placement and routing. Many solutions employ Euclidean data and ML techniques without considering that many EDA objects are represented naturally as graphs. The trending Graph Neural Networks are an opportunity to solve EDA problems directly using graph structures for circuits, intermediate RTLs, and netlists. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of the existing works linking the EDA flow for chip design and Graph Neural Networks.
