The techniques that researchers have used to control error in VLSI placement are surveyed. The author discusses the application of parallelism, synchronization with serial subsets, combining algorithms, periodic synchronization, shared-memory implementation, local-memory implementation, and connection Machine implementation. The issues of temporary versus cumulative error, task allocation, and error measurements are examined.
