Circuit-simulated obstacle-aware Steiner routing by Shi, Yiyu, Mesa, Paul, Yu, Hao, He, Lei

“…We model the routing graph by an RC network with terminals as inputs, and show that the faster an output reaches its peak, the higher the possibility for the corresponding Hanan or escape node to become a Steiner point. This enables us to select Steiner points and then apply any minimum spanning tree algorithm to obtain obstaclefree or obstacle-aware Steiner routing. …”
