Stochastic evolution algorithm for technology mapping

A new technology mapper (SELF-Map) for Look-Up Table (LUT) based Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) is described. SELF-Map is based on the Stochastic Evolution (SE) algorithm. The state space model of the problem is defined and suitable cost function which allows optimization for area, delay, or...

Description
Summary:A new technology mapper (SELF-Map) for Look-Up Table (LUT) based Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) is described. SELF-Map is based on the Stochastic Evolution (SE) algorithm. The state space model of the problem is defined and suitable cost function which allows optimization for area, delay, or area-delay combinations is proposed. Experimental results show that SELF-Map has an overall better performance compared to other algorithms reported in the literature
