Improving Standard-Cell Design Flow using Factored Form Optimization

Giovanni De Micheli, Alessandro Tempia Calvino

Factored form is a powerful multi-level representation of a Boolean function that readily translates into an implementation of the function in CMOS technology. In particular, the number of literals in a factored form correlates strongly with the number of ...

Boolean Rewriting Strikes Back: Reconvergence- Driven Windowing meets Resynthesis

Giovanni De Micheli, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

The paper presents a novel DAG-aware Boolean rewriting algorithm for restructuring combinational logic before technology mapping. The algorithm, called window rewriting, repeatedly selects small parts of the logic and replaces them with more compact implem ...

Three-Input Gates for Logic Synthesis

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Dewmini Sudara Marakkalage, Eleonora Testa, Heinz Riener

Most logic synthesis algorithms work on graph representations of logic functions with nodes associated with arbitrary logic expressions or simple logic functions and iteratively optimize such graphs. While recent multilevel logic synthesis efforts focused ...

Preserving Self-Duality During Logic Synthesis for Emerging Reconfigurable Nanotechnologies

Giovanni De Micheli, Heinz Riener, Shubham Rai, Akash Kumar

Emerging reconfigurable nanotechnologies allow the implementation of self-dual functions with a fewer number of transistors as compared to traditional CMOS technologies. To achieve better area results for Reconfigurable Field-Effect Transistors (RFET)-base ...

Reconfigurable Logic Gates Based on Programable Multistable Mechanisms

Simon Nessim Henein, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans, Ilan Vardi, Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

Binary logic gates are building blocks of computing machines, in particular, electronic computers. One variant is the programable logic gate, also known as the reconfigurable logic gate, in which the logical function implemented can be modified. In this pa ...
