Abstract

We present a new proof of the Retiming Lemma, which was first formulated and proved by Leiserson and Saxe (1981, 1983). Our proof relies on space-time transformations, and shows how retiming can be interpreted in the domain of space-time transformations. Two applications of the Retiming Lemma are given: one for designing circuits and the other for testing circuits.
