Abstract
This review provides an overview of the placement function within automatic layout systems. The automatic placement problem is defined and the data abstractions are described. The discussion divides placement algorithms into two classes: constructive and iterative. Applications of the algorithms within layout systems are described. A large number of references is provided to allow use as a guide to placement literature.
