A method for inserting repeaters in an integrated circuit includes establishing a set of initial constraints for a given set of buses; assigning at least one repeater corresponding to each of the given set of buses based on the set of initial constraints; progressively relaxing the set of initial constraints to form a new set of constraints for a new set of buses and assigning at least one repeater corresponding to each of the new set of buses based on the new set of constraints; and routing assigned repeaters to each of the new set of buses in the integrated circuit.
