N2 - In the past, reversible logic has become an intensely studied research topic. This is mainly motivated by its applications in the domain of low-power design and quantum computation. Since reversible logic is subject to certain restrictions (e.g. fanout and feedback are not allowed), traditional synthesis methods are not applicable and specific methods have been developed. In this paper, we focus on synthesis of multiplier circuits in reversible logic. Three methods are presented that address the drawbacks of previous approaches. In particular, the large number of circuit lines in the resulting realizations as well as the poor scalability. Finally, we compare the results to circuits obtained by general purpose synthesis approaches.
