Methods and systems for optimizing and/or designing integrated circuits. One exemplary method includes determining fanout of a driving component in a representation of an integrated circuit (IC) being designed, determining for the driving component, the loads in the representation of the IC driven by the driving component, and determining use of existing wiring resources used to connect the loads to the driving component. The method further includes optimizing, based on the use of existing wiring resources, the fanout of the driving component, and the loads being driven by the driving component, a design of the IC. |
