-sis is an interactive program for the synthesis of both synchronous
-and asynchronous sequential circuits. The input can be given in state
-table format or as logical equations (for synchronous circuits), or
-as a signal transition graph (for asynchronous circuits); a target
-technology library is given in genlib format. The output is a netlist
-of gates in the target technology.
-
-The system includes various capabilities that are controlled interactively
-by the user. These include state minimization, state assignment,
-optimization for area and delay using retiming, optimization using
-standard algebraic and Boolean combinational techniques from MISII,
-performance optimization using restructuring, and technology mapping
-for optimal area and delay. Redundancy removal and 100% testability
-are provided for combinational and scan-path circuits. Formal verification
-is available for both combinational and sequential circuits, even for
-circuits with different state encodings.
-
-This distribution contains sis, nova (state assignment), jedi (state
-assignment), stamina (state minimization, from June Rho at University of
-Colorado, Boulder), sred (state minimization), espresso, blif2vst (mapped
-BLIF to structural VHDL translator), vst2blif (structural VHDL to BLIF
-translator), xsis (a front-end graphical interface to sis) and several stripped
-down packages from the OctTools (options, port, and utility) that are needed
-for some of the programs listed above.
