Simulation-Guided Boolean Resubstitution
This paper proposes a new logic optimization paradigm based on circuit simulation, which reduces the need for Boolean computations such as SAT-solving or constructing BDDs. The paper develops a Boolean resubstitution framework to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Methods to generate highly expressive simulation patterns are developed, and the generated patterns are used in resubstitution for efficient filtering of potential resubstitution candidates to reduce the need for SAT validation. Experimental results show that improvements in circuit size reduction were achieved by up to 74%, compared to a state-of-the-art resubstitution algorithm.
