ചാനൽ റൂട്ടിംഗ് എന്നത് ഞങ്ങൾ അഭിമുഖീകരിച്ച ഏറ്റവും പ്രധാനപ്പെട്ട തരത്തിലുള്ള വിശദമായ റൂട്ടിംഗ് പ്രശ് നമാണ്, കാരണം ഇന്ന് നമ്മൾ നിർമ്മിക്കുന്നതോ രൂപകൽപന ചെയ്യുന്നതോ ആയ VLSI ചിപ് സ് ASIC-കളിൽ ഭൂരിഭാഗവും സാധാരണ സെല്ലോ സെമി-കസ്റ്റം ഡിസൈൻ രീതിയോ ആണ് ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നത്.
ఛానల్ రౌటింగ్ అనేది మనం ఎదుర్కొన్న చాలా ముఖ్యమైన వివరణాత్మక రౌటింగ్ సమస్య, ఎందుకంటే ఈ రోజు మనం తయారుచేసే లేదా రూపకల్పన చేసే చాలా VLSI చిప్స్ ASIC లను నేను చెప్పినట్లుగా, అవి ప్రామాణిక సెల్ లేదా సెమీ-కస్టమ్ డిజైన్ పద్దతిని ఉపయోగిస్తాయి.
