*Q1:

CAD競賽定題組第六題Generalized L-Shaped Channel Router, 其中測試檔第三個case的邊界設定HI, 
有overlap的問題, 與常理不合, 不知是否為題目原意


*A1:

第三個測試檔已修正,請重新下載

*Q2:

在Advanced Features中的Timing consideration是否要以最小化一條給定critical net的長度為目標? 


*A2:

For advanced features, you have the freedom to define them (as long as 
you define them clearly in your report). It is fine to minimize the delay of 
the critical net for timing consideration.

*Q3:

Evaluation中,the channel density所指的是不是在channel中有繞線的最大track數目?

*A3:

By local density, we mean the maximum number of nets passing through
a particular column. Channle density is referred to as the maximum local 
density in the channel.

*Q4: (5/28, 2002)

        在Evaluation中,the channel density所指的是不是在channel中有繞線的最大track數目還是每個column被多少條nets所穿越的
        數量?
        如果以下面的example而言,請問Evaluation中定義的channel density (max)  指的是 3 還是 2 ?                  
                                                                                                                                                           

 

*A4:

By channel density, we mean the maximum number of nets passing through a column.
So the channel density of the example is 2.
