The importance of a design methodology when using Formal Description Techniques is generally agreed in the scientific community. This paper presents some design principles and con...
We define the term "digital object" and specify a variety of qualities that are important during the object design phase. A digital object contains a set of models, and ...
In this paper, we present a performance-driven softmacro clustering and placement method which preserves HDL design hierarchy to guide the soft-macro placement process. We also pr...
IBM founded the Austin Research Laboratory to investigate high-performance microprocessorbased systems. Initial e orts have focused on design for high frequency. This resulted in ...
This paper describes the features and design methodology of MIDA, a MPEG1 integrated audio decoder. MIDA has been almost completely designed using automatic synthesis of VHDL desc...
