Abstract

The schematization of simple polygons into octilinear polygons is a computational problem arising in the context of electronic CAD systems. In particular, it appears when the generation and propagation of electromagnetic noise into real-world multi-layer PCBs has to be detected. In this paper we provide a fast and simple heuristic for solving such a problem. Experimental evaluations over real-world data show the efficiency and the good performance of the proposed approach.
