Summary :

Genetic algorithms have been shown to be very useful in a variety of search and optimization problems. In this paper, we describe the implementation of genetic algorithms for channel routing problems and identify the key points which are essential to making full use of the population of potential solutions, that is one of the characteristics of genetic algorithms. Three efficient crossover techniques which can be divided further into 13 kinds of crossover operators have been compared. We also extend our previous work with ability to deal with dogleg case by simply splitting multi-terminal nets into a series of 2-terminal subnets. It routes the Deutsch's difficult example with 21 tracks without any detours.
