A computer-aided engineering (CAE) tool simulates physical floor-planning of electronic components to be placed and interconnected on both sides of a printed circuit board (PCB). Initially components are placed in a raw portion of the PCB, until an evaluator determines where to re-place selected components in refined portions on both sides of the PCB. The evaluation process is repeated until all components are selected from the raw portion and re-placed in a refined portion. During evaluation, a profile of the raw portion is generated, and the generated profile is searched for a location for placing each selected component.
