Ordering techniques for ESOP-based Toffoli cascade generation
Jacqueline E. Rice, Noor Muhammed Nayeem · 2011
This paper describes three techniques for ordering ESOP cubes prior to generation of a Toffoli gate generation. Two of these techniques are from earlier work, while the third is a new approach. The new approach applies rules to manipulate the cubes followed by a reordering process. Our experiments demonstrate that the new approach is much more effective than either of the two previous approaches. We apply template matching as a post-processing step, which results in even further reductions in the number of Toffoli gates.
