On crossing minimization problem

چکیده
In this paper we consider a problem related to global routing post-optimization: the crossing minimization problem (CMP). Given a global routing representation, the CMP is to minimize redundant crossings between every pair of nets. In particular, there are two kinds of CMP: constrained CMP (CCMP) and unconstrained CMP (UCMP). These problems have been studied previously in Groe89], where an O(m 2 n) algorithm was proposed for CCMP, and in MS95], where an (mn 2 + 2) algorithm was proposed for UCMP, where m is the total number of modules, n is the number of nets, and is the number of crossings deened by an initial global routing topology. We present a simpler and faster O(mn) algorithm for CCMP and an O(n(m +)) time algorithm for UCMP. Both algorithms improve over the time bounds of the previously proposed algorithms. The novel part of our algorithm is that it uses the plane embedding information of globally routed nets in the routing area to construct a graph-based framework and obtain a good junction terminal assignment that minimizes the number of crossings.

On the complexity of crossings in permutations
We investigate crossing minimization problems for a set of permutations, where a crossing expresses a disarrangement between elements. The goal is a common permutation π∗ which minimizes the number of crossings. In voting and social science theory this is known as the Kemeny optimal aggregation problem minimizing the Kendall-τ distance. This rank aggregation problem can be phrased as a one-side...
متن کاملSPHier: Scalable Parallel Biclustering Using Weighted Bigraph Crossing Minimization
Biclustering is used for discovering correlations among subsets of attributes with subsets of transactions in a transaction database. It has an extensive set of applications ranging from Gene co-regulation analysis[4], documentkeyword clustering[12] and collaborative filtering for online recommendation systems[13]. In this paper, we propose optimal biclustering problem as maximal crossing numbe...
متن کاملCrossing Minimization Problems of Drawing Bipartite Graphs in Two Clusters
The crossing minimization problem is a classic and very important problem in graph drawing (Pach, Tòth 1997); the results directly affect the effectiveness of the layout, especially for very large scale graphs. But in many cases crossings cannot be avoided. In this paper we present two models for bipartite graph drawing, aiming to reduce crossings that cannot be avoided in the traditional bilay...
متن کاملFixed Parameter Tractability of Crossing Minimization of Almost-Trees
We investigate exact crossing minimization for graphs that differ from trees by a small number of additional edges, for several variants of the crossing minimization problem. In particular, we provide fixed parameter tractable algorithms for the 1-page book crossing number, the 2-page book crossing number, and the minimum number of crossed edges in 1-page and 2-page book drawings.
متن کاملMathematical Programming Formulation of Rectilinear Crossing Minimization
In a rectilinear drawing of a simple graph G each vertex is mapped to a distinct point in the plane and each edge is represented by a straight-line segment with appropriate ends. The goal of rectilinear crossing minimization is to find a rectilinear drawing of G with as few edge crossings as possible. A new approach to rectilinear crossing minimization is presented including a formulation of th...
متن کاملOptimal k-Level Planarization and Crossing Minimization
An important step in laying out hierarchical network diagrams is to order the nodes on each level. The usual approach is to minimize the number of edge crossings. This problem is NP-hard even for two layers when the first layer is fixed. Hence, in practice crossing minimization is performed using heuristics. Another suggested approach is to maximize the planar subgraph, i.e. find the least numb...
