Welcome to the Munich Nanotech Benchmark Library (MNT Bench)!

The development and improvement of physical design tools for Field-coupled Nanocomputing (FCN) is critical to the success of this emerging technology. To compare the results of new physical design algorithms, this benchmark suite provides common benchmark functions in the field combined with state-of-the-art layouts. In addition to layouts using different gate sets, such as the QCA ONE gate library for Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) or Bestagon for Silicon Dangling Bonds (SiDBS), the following benchmark library also differentiates between different underlying clocking schemes such as 2DDWave, USE, RES, ESR or ROW. Furthermore, all layouts have been verified using fiction's equivalence checker.

All layouts can be downloaded as fiction gate-level layouts files (.fgl), which can be parsed and generated by fiction.

In order to create a benchmark set according to your needs, simply fill out the form below.

Benchmark Selection

Please select the desired benchmarks from the set of all available ones or select all ().

Trindade16 Benchmarks:
{% for benchmark_trindade in trindade %}
{{ benchmark_trindade.name }}
{% endfor %}
Fontes18 Benchmarks:
{% for benchmark_fontes in fontes %}
{{ benchmark_fontes.name }}
{% endfor %}
ISCAS85 Benchmarks:
{% for benchmark_iscas in iscas %}
{{ benchmark_iscas.name }}
{% endfor %}
EPFL Benchmarks:
{% for benchmark_epfl in epfl %}
{{ benchmark_epfl.name }}
{% endfor %}

Technology Selection

Next, technological specifications for the selected benchmarks must be chosen. The gate library defines the selection of gates that can be used, while the clocking scheme defines the underlying arrangement of clock zones on the layout. For details, see the level description.
