CDRRA AlgorithmCDRRA Algorithm(1) Read in the sensitivity rate and construct the crosstalk graph (XG).(2) For all the horizontal and vertical slices, DO(3) Construct the interval graph (IG).(4) Construct the real crosstalk graph (RXG).(5) Construct the tracks’ adjacency graph (TAG).(6) Construct the cost matrix for the assignments of net segments

onto the routing tracks.(7) Compute the maximum clique in RXG and the maximum

independent set in TAG. Calculate the minimum cost assignment solution using the linear assignment algorithm.

(8) Update IG, RXG, TAG and the cost matrix according to the assignment results. If RXG is NULL, then go to (9), else go to

(7).(9) Compute the maximum clique from IG and assign the net

segments onto the remaining routing tracks using the same algorithm until all the net segments are assigned or the routing tracks are not available.
