Abstract

In high level synthesis, after the binding stage, multiplexor network is generated to connect the outputs of modules (functional-units/registers) to the inputs of modules. In this paper, we present an algorithm to generate a 2-to-1 multiplexor network with minimum number of multiplexors. Our algorithm is based on iteratively solving minimum vertex cover problems. Experimental results show that our approach obtains 8 to 25% improvement over a direct multiplexor-forest approach.
