Disclosed are systems, methods, and algorithms for network layout. A
network layout having subnetworks of matching series and parallel
elements is systematically generated to implement the network within area
constraints. After the selection of the number of rows of network
elements, the number of elements in each row, the sequencing of the
elements, and the element locations, are systematically determined. The
network layout systematically produced reduces the influence of
unfavorable factors on the network such as temperature gradients, process
gradients, and interference, by dispersing subnetwork elements throughout
the layout.
