Abstract :
A novel method is proposed for the two-layer topological channel routing problem. The authors´ algorithm takes geometric information into consideration when a topological solution is obtained. Experimental results show that the algorithm generates very good solutions. For example, the authors have obtained a height of 41 for Deutsch´s difficult example without any parallel overlaps of wires while simultaneously achieving a via count of 219.<>
