Abstract | We propose MBARC, a reconfigurable framework using memory as the primary computing element. The proposed framework leverages on the reported advantages of memory array design with nanodevices, which are compatible to fabrication into dense and regular structures. Simulation results for a set of ISCAS benchmarks show average improvement of 32% in area, 21% in delay and 34% in energy per vector compared to nanoscale FPGA implementation. |

Abstract | Quantum information processing is in the beginning stages and there is no mature method for quantum circuit synthesis. Among open research problems, quantum circuit synthesis has recently received significant attention. In this paper, we propose a new non-search based moving forward synthesis algorithm (MOSAIC) for CNOT-based quantum circuits. In contrast with the widely used search-based methods, MOSAIC is guaranteed to produce a result and can lead to a solution in much fewer steps. To evaluate the proposed algorithms, different circuits taken from the literature are used. The experimental results show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. |
