2.2 Multilevel Markov clustering process
The input to the clustering process is a netlist of logic
blocks and their interconnections. The task is to create
separate netlists of clusters of logic blocks with each
block or lower-level cluster assigned exactly once to a
unique higher-level cluster. The clustering process
consists of two major steps. First the input circuit
netlist is converted into a graphical representation.
Then, a recursive MCL process is performed to coarsen the netlist
