Abstract
Automatic routing programs produce layouts which contain features that could be improved. This paper describes straightforward techniques for layout improvement that are routing algorithm independent.

Automatic layout procedures for serial routing devices
DAC '88: Proceedings of the 25th ACM/IEEE Design Automation ConferenceConventional automatic layout systems have been applied to MOS or bipolar devices. However, these systems cannot deal with certain features, e.g. signal serialization, in serial routing devices such as Josephson devices. This paper defines layout ...
Automatic Variable-Width Routing for VLSI
Some of the essentials for layout of complex VLSI circuits are hierarchical design based on macrocells of arbitrary size and shape, power nets with local varying width, signal nets with individual width and very compacted layouts which still have to ...
