  • Abstract
    Detecting support-reducing bound sets is an important step in Boolean decomposition. It affects both the quality and the runtime of several applications in technology mapping and re-synthesis. This paper presents an efficient heuristic method for detecting support-reducing bound sets using two-cofactor symmetries. Experiments on the MCNC and ITC benchmarks show an average 40× speedup over the published exhaustive method for bound set construction.
