Abstract

This paper discusses the NP-complete problem of reconfiguringa two-dimensional degradable VLSI/WSI array underthe row and column routing constraints. A new strategyfor row selection in the logical array is proposed andthe earlier approach by Low et. al. is simplified. A flawin Low's algorithm is also addressed. Experimental resultsshow that our algorithm is approximately 50% faster thanthe most efficient algorithm, cited in the literature, withoutloss of performance.
