Synthesis tool for design of complex polymorphic circuits

This paper is dealing with research activities carried out in the domain of unconventional, polymorphic electronics. Main attention is focused on the logic synthesis aspects of complex polymorphic circuits. The introductory part elucidates a fundamental concept of polymorphic electronics and highlights its important properties. In addition, substantial advantages of this paradigm in comparison to conventional circuit design approach are discussed together with an identification of possible shortcomings. Main contribution of this paper is the proposal and implementation of a synthesis technique which makes it feasible to achieve an area-efficient results in case of complex polymorphic circuit involving hundreds of gates. Finally, accomplished experimental results and their analysis is provided.
