This paper proposes a fast SAT-based algorithm for recovering area applicable to an already technology mapped circuit. The algorithm considers a sequence of relatively small overlapping regions, called windows, in a mapped network and tries to improve the ...
The evolution of technologies makes surveying accessible to a broader community of professionals and students. Therefore, teaching geomatics is a continuous challenge. This article presents an original pedagogical approach based on a teaching unit gatherin ...
Typical operators for the decomposition of Boolean functions in state-of-the-art algorithms are AND, exclusive-OR (XOR), and a 2-to-1 multiplexer (MUX). We propose a logic decomposition algorithm that uses the majority-of-three (MAJ) operation. Such decomp ...
SAT based exact synthesis is a powerful technique, with applications in logic optimization, technology mapping, and synthesis for emerging technologies. However, its runtime behavior can be unpredictable and slow. In this paper, we propose to add a new typ ...
