Abstract
A graph is constructed, having a plurality of nodes representing a plurality of logical operations and a plurality of edges connecting those of the plurality of nodes which do not conflict. A weight, including a width difference between end nodes of each of the edges, is assigned to each edge. Weighted cliques are enumerated, each including at least two of the nodes. Each of the weighted cliques is replaced with a single one of the logical operations and a multiplexer, to obtain a plurality of multiplexer-operation groups, such that each logical operation in one of the multiplexer-operation groups can be shared within a same clock cycle of a digital electronic integrated circuit.
