Abstract: The complexity of next-generation VLSI systems
will exceed the capabilities of top-down layout synthesis
algorithms, particularly in netlist partitioning and
module placement. Bottom-up clustering is needed to
"condense" the netlist so that the problem size becomes
tractable to existing optimization methods. In
this paper, we establish the DS quality measure, the
first general metric for evaluation of clustering algorithms.
The DS metric in turn motivates our RWST
algorithm, a new self-tuning... (Update)

.... witnessed by the many ad hoc means in the literature (e.g. all pairs shortest paths, k Gamma l connectivity [9] degree=separation [10], etc. Because the min cut partitioning objective of Equation (1) requires us to minimize f and the max sum objective of Equation (3)...
...problem is NP complete. However, many algorithms have been developed that find reasonably good partitionings [23, 22, 9, 24, 19, 18, 20, 2, 3, 7, 8, 12, 5, 21, 16, 13]. The k way partitioning problem is most frequently solved by recursive bisection. That is, we first obtain a 2...
