| 2025 | EDGE: DBMS-Empowered Boolean Decomposition for GIG SynthesisabstractBoolean decomposition is a powerful technique in logic synthesis that breaks down Boolean functions into simpler components. Decomposition-based logic synthesis yields high-quality results and is particularly effective when combined with small-window optimization methods in Gate-Inverter Graphs (GIG). However, the efficiency limitations of current methods have constrained their applicability in handling large and complex logic. To address this challenge, we propose a novel framework, called EDGE, which leverages modern database techniques to accelerate Boolean decomposition, thereby achieving improved synthesis results while maintaining high efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate a runtime speedup of up to $21 \times$ and an overall reduction in node count of at least $15 \%$ compared to state-of-the-art synthesis methods.

| 2025 | Maximum Fanout-Free Window Enumeration: Towards Multi-Output Sub-Structure SynthesisabstractPeephole optimization is commonly used in And-Inverter Graphs (AIGs) optimization algorithms. The efficiency of these algorithms heavily relies on the enumeration process of sub-structures. One common sub-structure is the cut, known for its efficient enumeration method and single-output characteristic. However, an increasing number of optimization algorithms now target sub-structures that incorporate multiple outputs. In this paper, we explore Maximum Fanout-Free Windows (MFFWs), a novel sub-structure with a multi-output nature, as well as its practical applications and enumeration algorithms. To accommodate various algorithm execution processes, we propose two different enumeration styles: Dynamic and Static. The Dynamic approach provides flexibility in adapting to changes in the AIG structure, whereas the Static method ensures efficiency as long as the AIG structure remains unchanged during execution. We apply these methods to rewriting and technology mapping to improve their runtime performance. Experimental results on pure enumeration and practical scenarios show the scalability and efficiency of the proposed MFFW enumeration methods.

| 2023 | A Database Dependent Framework for K-Input Maximum Fanout-Free Window RewritingabstractRewriting is a widely used logic optimization approach incorporated in most commercial logic synthesis tools. In this paper, we present a new rewriting method based on And-Inverted Graph (AIG). Rather than focusing on cut rewriting, it considers a novel sub-structure called Maximum Fanout-Free Window (MFFW) and rewrites with a more compact implementation. Both exact synthesis and heuristic methods can be adopted to optimize MFFWs. A database dependent framework is proposed to store the optimal sub-structures to accelerate the processing. We further propose the semi-canonicalization to reduce the scale of the database, which could reduce more than 98% of the 4-input MFFW database. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrate both the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed framework.
