Equation 1 · Part 7 · Chiplets and Advanced Packaging in Practice: Floorplanning, UCIe, and Thermal Co-Design

Symbol gamma

\text{Cost}(\mathcal{P}) \;=\; \alpha \cdot WL(\mathcal{P}) \;+\; \beta \cdot T_{\max}(\mathcal{P}) \;+\; \gamma \cdot \sigma_{\max}(\mathcal{P}),

\gamma

What this part means

the design team weights most heavily determines where dies actually land.

Its job in the formula

gamma appears in the objective or constraint used by the optimization on the right.

Where the article explains it

This is a schematic statement of the shape these tools optimize, not a reproduction of any one paper’s exact formula, but it makes the practitioner point concrete: whichever of $\alpha$ , $\beta$ , and $\gamma$ a design team weights most heavily determines where dies actually land, and a floorplan tuned only for WL is optimizing a real but incomplete objective.

The passage around this formula

A variable is a named place for a value. Its letter is a local label: x can mean position in one formula and a data point in another.
