Improvements to Satisfiability-Based Boolean Function Bi-Decomposition

Résumé

Boolean function bi-decomposition is pervasive in logic synthesis. Bi-decomposition entails the decomposition of a Boolean function into two other functions connected by a simple two-input gate. Existing solutions are based on Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) and, more recently, on Boolean Satisfiability (SAT). Recent work exploited the identification of Minimally Unsatisfiable Subformulas (MUSes) for computing the sets of variables to use in Boolean function bi-decomposition. This paper develops new techniques for improving the use of MUSes in function bi-decomposition. The first technique exploits structural properties of the function being decomposed, whereas the second technique exploits group-oriented MUSes. Experimental results obtained on representative benchmarks from logic synthesis demonstrate significant improvements both in performance and in the quality of decompositions.
