Constructing exact octagonal steiner minimal trees
Octagonal Steiner Minimal Trees (OSMTs) are used in the global routing phase of pervasive octagonal VLSI layout. The OSMT problem seeks a minimal length spanning structure using e...

Rectilinear Steiner Trees with Minimum Elmore Delay
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...

Heuristic Methods for Solving Euclidean Non-uniform Steiner Tree Problems
In this paper, we consider a variation of the Euclidean Steiner Tree Problem in which the space underlying the set of nodes has a specified non-uniform cost structure. This proble...

A Fast and Stable Algorithm for Obstacle-Avoiding Rectilinear Steiner Minimal Tree Construction
- In routing, finding a rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT) is a fundamental problem. Today's design often contains rectilinear obstacles, like macro cells, IP blocks, and...
