Abstract

In this paper, we consider a problem of VLSI (very large scale integrated) design occurring in the routing phase. The problem is to determine the optimal size selection for the gates in a combinatorial circuit which uses the problem of finding a shortest path in an oriented acyclic graph for making certain updates between any two successive iterations. For this NP-hard problem, we give an approximation algorithm.
