  • Abstract
    This work deals with the dummy fill and negative fill insertion problem with constraints on the minimum and maximum pattern density within a moving rectangular window. It is shown that the general class of such problems is at least NP-hard. A greedy randomized algorithm for this problem is proposed, and its proof of convergence and some experimental results are presented. More detailed account of our implementation and results are available in [7].
