  • Chapter 13 Rectangular Duals
    Chapter 13 Rectangular Duals 13.1 Intro duction In this chapter we consider the problem of representing a graph G bya rectangu- lar dual. This is applied in the design of o or planning of electronic chips and in architectural design. A rectangular dual is de ned as follows. A rectangular subdi- vision system of a rectangle R is a partition of R into a set = fR ;R ;:::;R g 1 2 n of non-overlapping rectangles such that no four rectangles in meet at the same p oint. A rectangular dual of a planar graph G is a rectangular sub division system and a one-to-one corresp ondence R : V ! suchthattwovertices u and v are adjacentin G if and only if their corresp onding rectangles RuandRv share a common b oundary. In the application of this representation, the vertices of G repre- sent circuit mo dules and the edges represent mo dule adjacencies. A rectangular dual provides a placement of the circuit mo dules that preserves the required adjacencies. Figure 13.1 shows an example of a planar graph and its rectangular dual. This problem was rst studied by Bhasker & Sahni [6, 7] and Ko zminski & Kin- nen [73 ]. Bhasker & Sahni gave a linear time algorithm to construct rectangular duals [7]. The algorithm is fairly complicated and requires manyintriguing pro ce- dures. The co ordinates of the rectangular dual constructed by it are real numb ers and b ear no meaningful relationship to the structure of the graph. This algorithm consists of two ma jor steps: 1 constructing a so-called regular edge labeling REL of G; and 2 constructing the rectangular dual using this lab eling.

    Redfield PTSA Meeting Tuesday, August 15, 2107 at 5:15 p.m. Redfield Elementary Media Center Members present: Karla Chase, Felicia Ethridge, Amanda Evans, Amy Hermann, Dawn Kopplin, Shawn Nichols, Leauna Peterson Angela Rice, Terri Roth, Janell Shottenkirk. Shawn gave treasures report. The all-school reunion committee will be donating approximately $10,000 for the playground equipment as well. Mrs. Walder thinks the playground equipment will be roughly $40,000 if we don’t do a specific color. We bundled Redfield Food Center receipts as people arrived. Karla will take a picture of some of the things we got with last year’s receipts and we’ll post on facebook and make a display to let people know how much we appreciate the receipts. Karla did some checking with the state PTA on some questions we had, she has not got answers yet. We decided we will lower membership dues to $5 as long as we don’t have to pay out more than that. We need to keep our membership with the state PTA because of the insurance that we pay half for and post prom pays half. Karla will get the membership forms sent out next Monday. We will put on bright colored paper this year and have the due date of September 25th. We will also include “everyone is a member” and list our PTSA facebook page. The book fair will be held October 3-6. Karla will also send next week the volunteer forms and we will post on facebook. Hopefully we can find a website to use to make signing up much easier.
