RevKit - A Toolkit for Reversible Circuit Design
In recent years, research in the domain of reversible circuit design has attracted significant
attention leading to many different approaches e.g. for synthesis, optimization, simulation,
verification, and test. However, most of the resulting tools are not publicly available. This
often makes the development of new methods harder since e.g. previous approaches are not available
for comparison. Furthermore, approaches have to be re-implemented from scratch in order to modify
or improve them and the lack of tools for reversible hardware design makes it hard for beginners to
get involved in the topic.
RevKit tries to address this issue. RevKit is an open source toolkit for reversible circuit designs,
which aims to make recent developments in the domain of reversible circuit design accessible to other
researchers and interested people. RevKit is a modular and extendable framework which already provides
a significant number of approaches and algorithms, but also easily enables the addition of new methods
and tools. In this sense, RevKit addresses users who simply want to apply the framework and its tools
as well as developers who actively want to develop further methods on top of the framework.
