Abstract. An evolutionary algorithm is used to evolve a digital circuit which computes a simple hash function mapping a 16-bit address space into an 8-bit one. The target technolog...

A major obstacle to widespread acceptance of formal verification is the difficulty in using the tools effectively. Although learning the basic syntax and operation of a formal ver...
ct Static timing analysis has traditionally used the PERT method for identifying the critical path of a digital circuit. Due to the influence of the slope of a signal at a particul...

This paper presents efficient reencoding and resynthesis algorithms for cycle-time minimization of multilevel implementations of synchronous finite state machines (FSMs) under a fi...
This paper introduces Lazy Transitions Systems (LzTSs). The notion of laziness explicitly distinguishes between the enabling and the firing of an event in a transition system. LzT...
