Power and area optimization by reorganizing CMOS complex gate circuits
Thispaper proposes a method for achieving low-power control-logic modules using a combination of CMOS complex gate reorganization, transistor size optimization, and transistor lay...

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Reliable Boolean Circuits with Noisy Gates
We prove that the reliable computation of any Boolean function with sensitivity s requires Ω(s log s) gates if the gates of the circuit fail independently with a fixed positive...

Using Formal Tools to Study Complex Circuits Behaviour
We use a formal tool to extract Finite State Machines (FSM) based representations (lists of states and transitions) of sequential circuits described by flip-flops and gates. The...

Reductions in Circuit Complexity: An Isomorphism Theorem and a Gap Theorem
We show that all sets that are complete for NP under non-uniform AC0 reductions are isomorphic under non-uniform AC0-computable isomorphisms. Furthermore, these sets remain NP-com...

Looking for an Analogue of Rice's Theorem in Circuit Complexity Theory
Rice’s Theorem says that every nontrivial semantic property of programs is undecidable. In this spirit we show the following: Every nontrivial absolute (gap, relative) counting p...
