Abstract: The reliability and the cost of electronic circuits are closely connected to the maximum power
dissipated by them. Tools for evaluating the worst case power consumption of sequential circu
Abstract: An original heuristic algorithm of sequential two-block decomposition of partial Boolean functions is
researched. The key combinatorial task is considered: finding of suitable partition on
Abstract: A novel approach to power reduction in VLSI arrays is proposed. This approach includes recognition of
the similarities in architectures and power profiles of different types of arrays, adap
Abstract: The problem under consideration is to reduce the area of the layout of regular VLSI structures by
means of their folding. A novel reformulation of the folding problem as the Boolean satisfi
Abstract: In the paper the programmable logic array (PLA) topological optimization problem is dealt with using folding techniques. A PLA folding algorithm based on the method of simulated annealing is

Abstract: An approach to the optimum switching scheme’s choice is proposed. It is based on the scalar
choice criteria. Problem of the multistage switching system's structure's determination is solv
Abstract: The problem under consideration is to find a synchronizing sequence for a logic network with memory. A novel method is proposed that is based on formulation of the task as the Boolean satisf
Abstract: In the paper the constrained folding problem is investigated for programmable logic array (PLA) of
special architecture type. Constraints applied to folding are given which are imposed by t
Abstract: A verification task of proving the equivalence of two descriptions of the same device is examined for
the case, when one of the descriptions is partially defined. In this case, the verifica
Abstract: Some aspects of choice of switching scheme for optical signals' square switching system's construction
of big capacity are considered in the work. Variant based on scalar criteria of choic
Abstract. The problem of checking whether a system of incompletely specified Boolean functions is implemented
by the given combinational circuit is considered. The task is reduced to testing out if t
