Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method for multiobjective evolutionary design of multiple constant multipliers (MCM). MCM is a digital circuit which multiplies its single input by N constants. MCMs are very good candidates for evolutionary design, because a candidate MCM can quickly be evaluated by applying only a single test vector. In our approach, we utilize Cartesian Genetic Programming and a controlled elitist non-dominated sorting algorithm. The proposed method is capable of finding a good trade-off among the chosen criteria.
