Abstract:
A method and system for parallel computation of a linear sequential circuit (LSC) based on a state transition matrix is disclosed herein. A multistep state transition matrix and a multistep output generation matrix can be pre-computed and stored in association with the linear sequential circuit. The multiple state transitions and the multiple output bits can be computed by multiplying the current input-state vector with a multistep next state transition matrix and a multistep output generation matrix, respectively. Multiple state transitions and multiple output bits can be generated in parallel in a single clock cycle based on the pre-computed state transition matrix and the output generation matrix utilizing a dot product in order to improve computational speed. Such a simple augmentation provides a flexible and inexpensive solution for high speedup linear sequential circuit computation with respect to a processor.
