Abstract

Polymorphic circuits represent a newly emerging computation paradigm, where one hardware structure is capable to  perform two or more different intended functions, depending on instantaneous conditions in the target operating environment. Due to the peculiarity of this paradigm, design of these circuits also calls for a novel approach to logic synthesis procedures. Several attempts to enhance the design of such circuits have already been made, producing highly suboptimal solutions. As an ingenious attempt to set lower bounds on complexity and support designers of sophisticated logic synthesis algorithms, a method with the prospect to facilitate the generation of optimum-size polymorphic circuits is presented in this  paper. The core of the proposed method is based on a purposeful exploitation of formal techniques, comprising SAT and PBO in the first place.
