摘要: This paper considers the area-constrained clustering of combinational circuits for delay minimization under a more general model, which practically takes variable interconnect into account. Our model is particularly applicable when allowing back-annotation actual information to drive process. We present vertex grouping technique and integrate it with algorithm (Rajaraman Wong, 1995) such that our can be proved solve problem optimally in polynomial time.
