Abstract

In this chapter, a new standalone tool, GeneTech (extracted from Genetic Technology mapping) is discussed, which automate the process of generating genetic circuits for dedicated Boolean functions. GeneTech performs Boolean optimization, followed by synthesis and technology mapping using a library of genetic logic gates. It takes the Boolean expression of a genetic circuit as input, and then first optimize it. Afterwards, it synthesizes the optimized Boolean expression into NOR-NOT form in order to construct the circuit using the real NOR/NOT gates available in the genetic gates library. In the end, GeneTech performs technology mapping to generate all the feasible circuits, with different genetic gates, to achieve the desired logical behavior. The circuits are generated in the form of standard SBOL representation.
