Because of the computation complexity of large circuits, the quadratic placement (Q-Place) cannot solve the placement problem fast enough without any preprocessing. In this paper, a method of combining the MFFC clustering and hMETIS partitioning based quadratic placement algorithm is proposed. Experimental results show it can gain good results but consume long running time. In order to cut down the running time, an improved MFFC clustering method (IMFFC) based Q-place algorithm is proposed in this paper. Comparing with the combining clustering and partitioning based method, it is much fast but with a little increase in total wire length.
