Routing algorithms in VLSI design form the backbone of interconnect synthesis, ensuring that circuit elements are connected efficiently while conforming to strict physical and timing constraints.

Abstract: Due to the complexity and dynamism of real-world needs, traditional vehicle routing solutions usually do not sufficiently consider implicit user preferences, leading to low acceptance and ...

Abstract: Networks-on-Chip (NoC) have emerged as a key communication backbone for modern System-on-Chip (SoC) architectures due to their scalability, modularity, and high performance. However, as the ...

Charles Pfeil is an Engineering Director in the Systems Design Division at Mentor Graphics. My first experience with computerized printed-circuit-board (PCB) design was in 1978 when I acquired two ...

In the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows, a set of customers are served by a fleet of vehicles of limited capacity, initially located at a central depot. Each customer provides a period of ...
