I am looking for a benchmark for evaluating place-and-route software. Any suggestions are welcome, but I am especially interested in something called "Deutsch's (sp?) difficult example". Does anybody have this (preferably in machine-readable form)? Thanks in advance, --mass Mass Sivilotti Caltech 256-80 Pasadena 91125 (mass@hobiecat.cs.caltech.edu)

Don't know if Dave's Difficult channel is in there, but there is a whole "Suite" of P&R benchmarks that are managed by MCNC. (they were used at various P&R workshops sponsored by mcnc and SIGDA)... Try contacting them.. scott.

Us hicks again. I have a cuppla things to try out and would like to see how it compares with other algorithms.

I have Sorry...MCNC is the Microelectronics Center of North Carolina, a research/university consortium. It is partly funded by the state, and partly through the industrial "partners" (this is just my personal interpretation of how it all works) to get info on the benchmarks, send an e-mail to benchmarks@mcnc.org (haven't done this personally, but was told this by a former employee) Hope this helps...scott
