Is there a public source for the ISCAS '85 netlists? Thanks, Bill Paulsen

In any case, you can get both ISCAS'85 (combinational benchmarks) and ISCAS'89 (sequential benchmarks) from MCNC. Below is a detailed info regarding '85, taken from the MCNC's ftp machine; the '89 benchmarks are in a directory ISCAS89 right next to ISCAS85. After ftp-ing these benchmarks, you are kindly requested to send mail to either me or jeri@mcnc.org - so that if any bugs are found we can send you the updated info. Kris Kozminski, kk@mcnc.org -------------------------------------------------------------- How To Obtain Benchmark Data The ISCAS '85 test generation benchmark data can be obtained from MCNC in one of two ways: by FTP over ARPA Net or by 9-track tape. 1.0 ARPA Net FTP If you have access to an ARPA Net connection you may establish an FTP connection to host "mcnc.mcnc.org" and copy the files using the "get" command. The login name is "anonymous" and the password is any string (we ask that you use your name or home login id). The files are in the "/pub/benchmark/ISCAS85" directory. The command sequence to establish a connection to the host machine is: ftp mcnc.mcnc.org anonymous (in response to the "Name" prompt) (your id) (in response to the "password" prompt) cd pub/benchmark/ISCAS85 FOR UNIX(tm) USERS: If you have a UNIX(tm) machine on the Arpanet, check to see if you have the "uncompress" and "tar" commands available. Shipping the benchmarks over in a compressed tar format is much faster than in individual ASCII files. The compressed and tarred benchmark data is in the file ISCAS85.tar.Z. If you have both commands, then do cd DATA.tar.Z binary get ISCAS85.tar.Z on your local machine, uncompress the files with the commands uncompress ISCAS85.tar.Z un-tar the files with the commands tar -xvf ISCAS85.tar FOR NON-UNIX USERS: If you do not have the "compress" and "tar" utilities available, you will have to copy the files explicitly. The actual ASCII files are stored under the directory "DATA". Total size is about 1.2 mbytes. To retrieve ASCII files, change directory (cd) to "DATA" and issue "get" or "mget" commands to select the files you want. 2.0 9-Track Tape We are prepared to send you a 9-track tape in TAR format. Contact Jeri Williams by phone (919 248-1938) or email (benchmarks@mcnc.org) and tell her your requirements. ACM SIGDA is providing funds to cover the cost of tapes and shipping, so there is no cost to you for this service. -- Kris Kozminski kk@mcnc.org "The party was a masquerade; the guests were all wearing their faces."
