Title |
Transforming disfigured and disoriented areas into routable switchboxes |
Date |
1991 |
Description |
Routing an entire circuit requires partitioning the circuit (routing area) into smaller, localized routing areas. Using non-rectangular, rotated switchbox shapes (and therefore non-manhattan routing layout) has the potential to simplify the partitioning of the circuit into routable areas and to use "dead space" on a chip for routing. The method described in this paper for generating non-rectangular, rotated switchboxes borrows ideas from computer graphics. |
