Abstract :
A very large scale integrated-circuit (VLSI) floorplan can be represented in an ordered tree (O-tree), and therefore the VLSI floorplan optimization problem can be transformed into an O-tree permutation problem. This paper presents a new greedy O-tree permutation algorithm and applies it to the VLSI floorplan optimization problem.
