ABSTRACT:
A method for optimizing a circuit containing a finite state machine (FSM) based on transition density. A first state assignment is assigned for each state. Then, a first transition density characteristic associated with the first state assignment is determined and a second state assignment, different from said first state assignment is assigned for each state. A second transition density characteristic associated with the second state assignment is then determined and the first state assignment is set equal to the second state assignment if second transition density characteristic is less than a predetermined amount. The process is repeated until the transition density has been minimized.
