Exact DAG-Aware Rewriting

Mathias Soeken, Heinz Riener

We present a generic resynthesis framework for optimizing Boolean networks parameterized with a multi-level logic representation, a cut-computation algorithm, and a resynthesis algorithm. The framework allows us to realize powerful optimization algorithms ...

Invited Tutorial Dynamatic: From C/C plus plus to Dynamically Scheduled Circuits

Paolo Ienne, Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic

High-level synthesis tools, both commercial and academic, typically rely on static scheduling to produce high-throughput pipelines. However, in applications with unpredictable memory accesses or irregular control flow, these tools need to make pessimistic ...

Revisiting Explicit Enumeration for Exact Synthesis

Heinz Riener

The problem of generating a minimal implementation of a given Boolean function is called exact synthesis. The parameter to be minimized is often the total number of gates used for the implementation. The exact synthesis engine is considered an essential to ...

Multiplier Architectures: Challenges and Opportunities with Plasmonic-based Logic

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Eleonora Testa, Odysseas Zografos

Emerging technologies such as plasmonics and photonics are promising alternatives to CMOS for high throughput applications, thanks to their waveguide's low power consumption and high speed of computation. Besides these qualities, these novel technologies a ...

Logic Optimization of Majority-Inverter Graphs

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Luca Gaetano Amarù, Eleonora Testa, Heinz Riener, Winston Jason Haaswijk

Majority-inverter graphs (MIGs) are a multi-level logic representation of Boolean functions with remarkable algebraic and Boolean properties that enable efficient logic optimizations beyond the capabilities of conventional logic representations. In this pa ...

Exact Synthesis of Boolean Functions in Majority-of-five Forms

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Winston Jason Haaswijk, Zhufei Chu

Recent studies show that majority-based logic synthesis is beneficial for both traditional and nanotechnology digital designs. However, most of the existing synthesis algorithms for majority logic generate majority-of-three (M-3) networks. The optimization ...

Design of approximate and precision-scalable circuits for embedded multimedia and neural-network processing

Vincent Frédéric Camus

Density, speed and energy efficiency of integrated circuits have been increasing exponentially for the last four decades following Moore's law. However, power and reliability pose several challenges to the future of technology scaling. Approximate computin ...

Linebacker: Preserving Victim Cache Lines in Idle Register Files of GPUs

Yunho Oh

Modern GPUs suffer from cache contention due to the limited cache size that is shared across tens of concurrently running warps. To increase the per-warp cache size prior techniques proposed warp throttling which limits the number of active warps. Warp thr ...

CASSIS: Characterization with Adaptive Sample-Size Inferential Statistics Applied to Inexact Circuits

Vincent Frédéric Camus

To design faster and more energy-efficient systems, numerous inexact arithmetic operators have been proposed, generally obtained by modifying the logic structure of conventional circuits. However, as the quality of service of an application has to be ensur ...

Majority Logic Synthesis

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Luca Gaetano Amarù, Eleonora Testa, Odysseas Zografos

The majority function (xyz) evaluates to true, if at least two of its Boolean inputs evaluate to true. The majority function has frequently been studied as a central primitive in logic synthesis applications for many decades. Knuth refers to the majority f ...
