Abstract :
An improved algorithm for solving the area optimization problem of spiral floorplans is presented. Each of the five basic rectangles of a spiral floorplan have O(n) implementations. The algorithm takes O(n2logn) time, and requires O(n2) space to solve the area optimization problem. The best previously known algorithm solved the problem in O(n3logn) time and O(n3) space
