Current synthesis methodologies based on hardwaredescription languages focus mainly on two distinct levels: behavior and register-transfer levels. In many practical cases, however...
We present an integrated approach aimed at predicting layout area needed to implement a behavioral description for a given performance goal. Our approach is novel because: (1) it ...

With several commercial tools becoming available, the high-level synthesis of applicationspeci c integrated circuits is nding wide spread acceptance in VLSI industry today. Existi...
In existing synthesis systems, the influence of the area and delay of the controller is not or not sufficiently taken into account. But the controller can have a big influence,...
