Abstract
A method of converting a Boolean logic circuit into an asynchronous multi-rail circuit is provided. A Boolean logic circuit is converted into a first multi-rail circuit using at least Shannon's expansion. The first multi-rail circuit is technology mapped into a second multi-rail circuit. Completion detection circuitry is added which receives the primary outputs of the second multi-rail circuit.
