  1. Coding issues.

A.  Covering and matching.

Status:   Front burner.  Done.  Needs testing. Done testing.

2.   Add code to write .allnodes.acc file for a covered netlist. Test.

Status:   Front burner. Tested. Seems to be working.

3.   Add code to use continuous counter for covered output .acc  files. Test.

Status:   Front burner. Done. Needs testing. Tested. Seems to work.

4.   Add linked list of hazards with more info to facilitate input permuting and matching/covering. Test.

Status:   Middle burner. Just added another hazard field in the netlist. Seems to be working fine.

5.   Add code to encapsulate ack hazards and not encapsulate mono hazards. Test thoroughly.

Status:   Middle burner. Done and tested. Seems to be working.

6.      Add gC’s to built-in library. Test.

Status:   Front burner.

7.      Add SOP-to-decomp function to support SIS libraries.

Status:   Middle burner. Test.

 

B.  Modify cge.acc code so the cge is computed from my decomposition.

Status:   Back burner.

 

C.  Input permutations. Adapt to the addition of inverters for minus inputs.

Status:   Middle burner.

 

D.  Unwinding zones and/or using POSETS in timed hazard checking.

Status:   Back burner.

 

E.  Code to do timed hazard checking with level-based events.

Status:   Back burner.
