MapTune: Advancing ASIC Technology Mapping via Reinforcement Learning Guided Library Tuning

Technology mapping involves mapping logical circuits to a library of cells. Traditionally, the full technology library is used, leading to a large search space and potential overhead. Motivated by randomly sampled technology mapping case studies, we propose MapTune framework that addresses this challenge by utilizing reinforcement learning to make design-specific choices during cell selection. By learning from the environment, MapTune refines the cell selection process, resulting in a reduced search space and potentially improved mapping quality.
