**cluster_x, cluster_y = c.GetWeightedCenter()*. Here the weighted center of cluster *c* is the average location of all the standard cells in the cluster, weighted according to their area.
* Use (*cluster_x*, *cluster_y*) as the origin and *threshold* as the step, to divide the bounding box of *c* into different regions.
* The elements (macro pins, macros, ports and standard cells) in each region forms a new cluster.
Note that the netlist is generated by physical-aware synthesis, we know the (x, y) coordinate for each instance.
We call readers’ attention to the existence of significant aspects that are still pending clarification here.
