Excerpt from Dynamic Grid Embedding: Optimizing the Compression of Partial Grids

One major goal of circuit integration is the ability to pack dense circuits in very small areas. The model most often used is the one that views the circuit as a graph and the chip as a grid. One lays out the circuit by embedding it in the grid so that graph edges map onto disjoint paths in the grid. The two major measures of embedding efficiency are the area of the smallest rectangle that encloses the circuit layout and the time involved in traversing long runs of wire [thom79]. Vlsi theory has been involved with the study of computational structures that fill specific needs in the new computational environment. These structures resemble cellular automata and iterative arrays of finite automata. The development and analysis of algorithms that aid in the logical and physical design process of integrated circuits is very much needed in order to replace the up to now ad hoc method of circuit design by the human designer.
