In this paper, we propose a hierarchical timing-driven Steiner tree algorithm for global routing which considers the minimization of timing delay during the tree construction as t...
Interconnect optimization for VLSI circuits has received wide attention. To model routing surfaces, multiple circuit layers are freabstracted as a single rectilinear plane, ignori...
Given an n-node graph and a subset of k terminal nodes, the NP-hard Steiner tree problem is to compute a minimum-size tree which spans the terminals. All the known algorithms for t...
The area of approximation algorithms for the Steiner tree problem in graphs has seen continuous progress over the last years. Currently the best approximation
For two given point sets, we present a very simple (almost trivial) algorithm to translate one set so that the Hausdor distance between the two sets is not larger than a constant ...
