Abstract :
A new method of redesign at the register-transfer level using a transformational process is proposed. The redesign approach takes into consideration ALU and interconnect cost in addition to layout area estimation. The idea is to start with a design, possibly generated by a synthesis system, and iteratively improve it by means of a reallocation process. The method is based on a set of reallocation transformations along with systematic strategies as to how to apply them together with a layout estimation model.
