We provide a new theoretical framework for constructing Steiner routing trees with minimum Elmore delay. Earlier work [3, 13] has established Elmore delay as a high delity estima...

For a rectilinear Steiner tree T with a root, define its k-th moment Mk(T) = T (dT (u))k du, where the integration is over all edges of T, dT (u) is the length of the unique path ...
Traditionally, rectilinear Steiner minimum trees (RSMT) are widely used for routing estimation in design optimizations like floorplanning and physical synthesis. Since it optimize...

In this paper, we present an efficient method to solve the obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner minimum tree (OARSMT) problem optimally. Our work is a major improvement over the w...
