Zusammenfassung:The authors present a unified graph model for representing various layout and routing problems in VLSI design, such as programmable logic array (PLA) folding, gate matrix layout, and channel routing. They introduce an algorithm for folding a Weinberger array. This is a generalization of PLA folding, and is equivalent to channel routing. As a part of this algorithm, a graph labeling procedure is described which generalized the well-known topological sorting algorithm for directed acyclic graphs.< >
