What is EM and it effects? in which stage this problem will come and in which stage need close the issue.
 

Electromigration, is it due a high current during a long time, which will move physically the metal, up to open the power net.
To solve that, made a good flooplan which well design power nets structure.
Some one used the metal filling connected to power nets (for example odd layer to ground and even layer to supply) to reduce the resistivity and then reduce the EM, this is after the routing/si steps.
