A new heuristic for rectilinear Steiner trees
The minimum rectilinear Steiner tree (RST) problem is one of the fundamental problems in the field of electronic design automation. The problem is NP-hard, and much work has been ...

Fast and accurate rectilinear steiner minimal tree algorithm for VLSI design
In this paper, we present a very fast and accurate rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT)1 algorithm called FLUTE. The algorithm is an extension of the wirelength estimation appr...

The polygonal contraction heuristic for rectilinear Steiner tree construction
— Motivated by VLSI/ULSI routing applications, we present a heuristic for rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT) construction. We transform a rectilinear minimum spanning tree (...

A Fast and Stable Algorithm for Obstacle-Avoiding Rectilinear Steiner Minimal Tree Construction
- In routing, finding a rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT) is a fundamental problem. Today's design often contains rectilinear obstacles, like macro cells, IP blocks, and...
