Specifically, we dynamically reduce injection of two types of faults: (1) hyperactive faults that never get detected, and (2) faults whose effects never propagate to a flip-flop or primary output. The cost of fault simulation is greatly reduced as injection of most of these two types of faults is prevented. Experiments show that our technique gives very accurate estimates with frequently greater speedups than the sampling techniques for most circuits. Most significantly, the proposed technique can be combined with the sampling approach to obtain speedups equivalent of small sample sizes and retain estimation accuracy of large fault samples.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

Even though this technique has been known for more than a decade, its exact optimization capability has not been formally established. We show that retiming and resynthesis can exactly implement 1-step equivalent state transition graph transformations. This result is the strongest to date. We also show how the notions of retiming and resynthesis can be moderately extended to achieve more powerful state transition graph transformations. Our work will provide theoretical foundation for practical retiming and resynthesis based optimization and verification.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

Implementation and use of SPFDs in optimizing Boolean networks 在布尔网络优化中spfd的实现和使用

(1996) introduced a new category for expressing the flexibility that a node can have in a multi level network. Originally presented in the context of FPGA synthesis, the paper has wider implications which were discussed by R.K. Brayton (1997). SPFDs are essentially a set of incompletely specified functions. The increased flexibility that they offer is obtained by allowing both a node to change as well as its immediate fanins. The challenge with SPFDs is: (1) to compute them in an efficient way, and (2) to use their increased flexibility in a controlled way to optimize a circuit. We provide a complete implementation of SPFDs using BDDs and apply it to the optimization of Boolean networks. Two scenarios are presented, one which trades literals for wires and the other rewires the network by replacing one fanin at a node by a new fanin. Results on benchmark circuits are very favorable.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design. Digest of Technical Papers (IEEE Cat.

Such techniques can produce highly effective static variable orders, and can thus be employed in numerous problems where current static variable ordering techniques prove totally inadequate.

Importantly, we have been able to build BDDs of circuits which could not be represented previously using numerous other reordering packages.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

In particular the data flow and control flow associated to the transformative and reactive domains, respectively are tightly coupled.

The change between these modes is synchronized by data communication. An approach is presented to model the correlation of process modes and to fully utilize this information for scheduling. A modeling example shows the optimization potential of the new approach.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

In this paper, we extend the idea of approximations using overlapping projections to symbolic backward reachability. This is combined with a previous method of computing overapproximate forward reachable state sets using overlapping projections. The algorithm computes a superset of the set of states that lie on a path from the initial state to a state that violates a specified invariant property. If this set is empty, there is no possibility of violating the invariant. If this set is non-empty, it may be possible to prove the existence of such a path by searching for a counter-example. A simple heuristic is given, which seems to work well in practice, for generating a counter-example path from this approximation. We evaluate these new algorithms by applying them to several control modules from the I/O unit in the Stanford FLASH Multiprocessor.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

To achieve maximum performance there is a need for analyzing logic stages with large complex coupled interconnects. In timing analysis, the worst case delay of gates along a critical path must include the effect of noise due to switching of nearby aggressor gates. We propose a new waveform iteration strategy to compute the delay in the presence of coupling and to align aggressor inputs to determine the worst case victim delay. We demonstrate the application of our methodology at both the transistor level and cell level. In addition, we prove that the waveforms generated in our methodology converge under typical timing analysis conditions.","PeriodicalId":224802,"journal":{"name":"1998 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

A solution space of packings is defined as the set of packings generated by changing parametric-BSG and room assignments.
