Abstract :
This paper presents a thorough analytical and experimental comparison of four move-based multi-way partitioning algorithms. Modifications are considered to the algorithm with the best solution quality, partitioning by free moves. These modifications allow a tradeoff to be made between solution quality and execution time. Results are given for ISCAS and other benchmarks
