Subject: [cs-ugrads] Lecture: Logic Synthesis Demystified

There will be a slower-paced, low-octane version of this talk in my
PMP class Tuesday night (Feb. 2, 6:30, EE045) that you are welcome to
attend.

Title: “Logic Synthesis Demystified”
Speaker: Ramine Roane  (Abound Logic)

Abstract:
This talk will be a quick tour through logic synthesis techniques from
High Level and RTL synthesis, to Boolean optimization and mapping.
It will discuss RTL optimization techniques (which are similar to
compiler optimizations), as well as the evolution of Boolean
optimization methods from truth-tables to S.O.P. and Boolean Networks
(used in SIS), to BDDs (used in VIS), to AND-Inverter-Graphs and the
use of SAT solvers (used in ABC), using examples to illustrate the
concepts.
