Abstract
To meet the needs of the market launch, placement and routing(P&R) algorithms for conventional circuits have started to adopt a hierarchical design, divide and conquer philosophy for the layout of VLSI circuits. Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) circuits are considered a solution to overcome the limitations of Moore’s Law. However, the current automated design of QCA circuits is still in its preliminary stages. This paper uses a hierarchical structure, which borrows from traditional circuits that should be laid out in large-scale circuits, to hierarchically process QCA circuits, laying them out layer by layer while using the A* algorithm for wiring to find feasible solutions. The algorithm is implemented using the C++ programming language, and simulation results verify the correctness of the algorithm.
期刊介绍：
The Nano Communication Networks Journal is an international, archival and multi-disciplinary journal providing a publication vehicle for complete coverage of all topics of interest to those involved in all aspects of nanoscale communication and networking. Theoretical research contributions presenting new techniques, concepts or analyses; applied contributions reporting on experiences and experiments; and tutorial and survey manuscripts are published.
Nano Communication Networks is a part of the COMNET (Computer Networks) family of journals within Elsevier. The family of journals covers all aspects of networking except nanonetworking, which is the scope of this journal.
