Abstract :
Partitioning plays an increasingly important role in the design process of VLSI circuits and systems. There are partitioning problems to be solved on all levels of abstraction. The rapidly increasing size of the designs will make good partitioning tools even more essential in the future. As an introduction to the other papers in this session, this tutorial presentation discusses the numerous facets of partitioning
