Obstacle-Avoiding Rectilinear Steiner Tree Construction Based on Spanning Graphs
Given a set of pins and a set of obstacles on a plane, an obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (OARSMT) connects these pins, possibly through some additional points (...

On the Complexity of Approximating TSP with Neighborhoods and Related Problems
We prove that various geometric covering problems, related to the Travelling Salesman Problem cannot be efficiently approximated to within any constant factor unless P = NP. This ...

FOARS: FLUTE based obstacle-avoiding rectilinear steiner tree construction
Obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (OARSMT) construction is becoming one of the most sought after problems in modern design flow. In this paper we present FOARS, ...

Partitioning with terminals: a "new" problem and new benchmarks
The presence of fixed terminals in hypergraph partitioning instances arising in top-down standard-cell placement makes such instances qualitatively different from the free hyperg...

Automatic Link Numbering and Source Routed Multicast
We present a new paradigm for multicasting. Our paradigm combines two ideas: a simple distributed algorithm for automatically numbering network links with a small amount of numbers...
