Mapping of Boolean Logic Functions onto 3D Memristor Crossbar

摘要

A novel 3D memristive crossbar architecture and Boolean logic computation on it is explored in the paper. The two approaches for 2D crossbar mapping-Compact and Parallel mapping schemes-are extended along with inclusion of possible parallelism between gates and the pipelining between the different layers is explored. The proposed 3D crossbar mapping schemes are compared in terms of tsteps and crossbar size required, and is also compared with the existing works on 2D crossbars for illustrating the possible advantages of 3D crossbars.
