This paper presents a logic restructuring technique named node addition and removal (NAR). It works by adding a node into a circuit to replace an existing node and then removing t...
An effective method for focusing optimization effort on the most important parts of a design is to examine those elements on the critical path. Traditionally, the critical path is...
