POSET timing and its application to the synthesis and verification of gate-level timed circuits

This paper presents a new algorithm for timed state-space exploration, POSET timing, POSET timing improves upon geometric methods by utilizing concurrency and causality information to dramatically reduce the number of geometric regions needed to …

Verification of delayed-reset domino circuits using ATACS

This paper discusses the application of the timing analysis tool ATACS to the high performance, self-resetting and delayed-reset domino circuits being designed at IBM's Austin Research Laboratory. The tool, which was originally developed to deal with …

Technology mapping of timed circuits

This paper presents an automated procedure for the technology mapping of timed circuits to practical gate libraries. Timed circuits are a class of asynchronous circuits that incorporate explicit timing information in the specification which is used …

Synthesis of timed asynchronous circuits

A synthesis method that utilizes timing constraints to generate timed asynchronous circuits is presented. By unfolding the cyclic graph specification of an asynchronous circuit into an infinite acyclic graph, it is possible to use efficient …
