Information about several papers discussed at a symposium on field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) synthesis in Monterey, California is presented. A computer-aided design researcher will show that current synthesis tools may produce circuits that are 70 to 500 times larger than the known optimal solutions in synthetic benchmarks. Another speaker will present a paper entitled "Optimality Study of Logic Synthesis for LUT-based FPGA."
