Abstract: In the paper the programmable logic array (PLA) topological optimization problem is dealt with using folding techniques. A PLA folding algorithm based on the method of simulated annealing is presented. A simulated-annealing PLA folding algorithm is presented for multiple unconstrained folding. Then, the algorithm is extended to handle constrained folding. In this way, simple folding is considered as a case of multiple constrained folding. Some experimental results of computer investigation of the suggested algorithms are given.

Keywords: design automation, area optimization, VLSI structure folding, simulated annealing.
