A hybrid SA-EA method for finding the maximum number of switching gates in a combinational circuit

[摘要] References(11)Cited-By(1)This paper presents a hybrid of simulating annealing (SA) and an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to determine the input pair that cause the maximum number of switching gates in a combinational circuit. We found that this combination provides better results than those obtained when only using either SA or EA.
