  9. Steiner tree

  10. Maze Routing • Breadth First Search: • Map memory reduction 1 2 1 1 2 2 2 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 2 1 1 1 2 2 1 1 S 1 1 1 2 2 1 1 1 1 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 2 1 2 1 1 3 1 1 3 2 3 1 1 3 2 1 2 1 3 2 1 S 1 1 3 2 1 2 1 3 2 3 1 1 3 1 1 A sequence that guarantees the predecessor is different from its successor. # states: 1, 2, Empty, Filled, 1, 2, 3

  11. Speed-up • Limit to a bounding box * 120% • Start from two ends • Expand from the corners farthest from the center • Expand the frontier closer to the target first t s

  12. Depth First Search 5 4 Line probe 3 3 2 4 1 2

  13. A* router t i s

  14. Ripup and Reroute B • Net sequence ordering • Penalty function on overlapping • Route around existing wires • Plowing or compaction • Topological routing C A

  15. Ripup and reroute with cost driven router

  16. Overlap Model

  18. Hybrid Router

  19. River Routing • Net Ordering • For each pin (circular order) • If it is a starting pin, push • Else if is ending pin, pop into a queue. • Route nets to follow contour 3 2 4 6 6 5 5 4 2 3

  20. Planar Routing • Power & Ground Distribution • Find a cut line that separates the chip into two regions • Obj: min tree length P + treelength G P G G P P G
