Abstract
We are working on an algorithm to optimize the logic circuits that can be realized on the super fine-grain parallel processing architecture. As a part of this work, we have developed an inverter reduction algor ithm. This algorithm is based on modeling logic circuits as dynamical systems. We implement the algorithm in the PARTHENON system, which is the high level synthesis system developed in NTT's laboratories, and e valuate it using ISCAS85 benchmarks. We also compare the results with both the existing algorithm of PARTHENON and the algorithm of Jain and Bryant.
