Although researchers and engineers originally focused on a preponderantly irreversible computing paradigm, alternative models receive more and more attention. Reversible computation is a promising example which has applications in many emerging technologies such as quantum computation or alternative directions for low-power design. Accordingly, the design of reversible circuits has become an intensely...
With the advancements in fabrication technology and the emergence of very high performance systems in VLSI, the interest for optical interconnects and optical functional on-chip units increased significantly. Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) switches based on Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers (SOAs) have been used as optical building blocks and allowed the synthesis of important Boolean functions...
Synthesis of reversible circuits has attracted the attention of many researchers. In particular, approaches based on Decision Diagrams (DDs) have been shown beneficial since they enable the realization of corresponding circuits for large functions. However, all existing approaches rely on a gate library composed of positive control lines only. Recently, it has been shown that the additional use of...
In the last decade, reversible circuits have been extensively investigated due to their application in emerging areas such as quantum computation or low-power design. In the past, synthesis of reversible circuits was lifted from the Boolean level to approaches exploiting hardware description languages. However, existing HDL synthesizers lead to circuits with a significant number of additional lines...
Driven by its promising applications, reversible logic received significant attention. As a result, an impressive progress has been made in the development of synthesis approaches, implementation of sequential elements, and hardware description languages. In this paper, these recent achievements are employed in order to design a RISC CPU in reversible logic that can execute software programs written...
