Abstract:

In this paper, a method for automatic optimization of digital circuit design has been introduced. This method is based on randomized search techniques mimicking natural genetic evolution. The proposed method is an iterative procedure that consists of a constant-size population of individuals, each one encoding a possible solution in a given problem space. The structure of the circuit is encoded into one-dimensional genotype as represented by a finite string of bits. A number of bit string used to represent the possible logic gates. The structure of gates are arranged in a m * n matrix form.

Keywords: Digital structure design, Evolutionary Algorithm, Optimization, Genetic Algorithm
