Efficient octilinear Steiner tree construction based on spanning graphs
--Octilinear interconnect is a promising technique to shorten wire lengths. We present two practical heuristic octilinear Steiner tree (OSMT) algorithms in the paper. They are both...

A New Approach to the Rectilinear Steiner Tree Problem
: We discuss a new approach to constructing the rectilinear Steiner tree (RST) of a given set of points in the plane, starting from a minimum spanning tree (MST). The main idea in ...

A Comparative Study of Ant Colony Optimization and Reactive Search for Graph Matching Problems
Many applications involve matching two graphs in order to identify their common features and compute their similarity. In this paper, we address the problem of computing a graph si...
