Obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner tree construction
— In today’s VLSI designs, there can be many blockages in a routing region. The obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner minimum tree (OARSMT) problem has become an important prob...

DeFer: deferred decision making enabled fixed-outline floorplanner
In this paper, we present DeFer -- a fast, high-quality and nonstochastic fixed-outline floorplanning algorithm. DeFer generates a non-slicing floorplan by compacting a slicing fl...
