RIA: Design Conceptualization for High Level Synthesis of Hardware

DUT这项研究是关于IC电路和系统设计的框架，它使用混合介质的方法来帮助工程师为高级综合建立设计模型。设计工具建立在图形输入语言和表格中间表示法的基础上。该表示使用通用设计模型，该模型包括同步和异步行为、时序约束和通信设计之间的协议。具体的研究任务是：1.高级综合环境，为设计概念化和捕获提供多种输入媒介；2.将部分设计的结构和用户绑定包含到该环境中；3.支持高级综合和仿真的VHDL语言设计描述的建模指南。本附录为少数族裔研究生提供支持。

Dutt This research is on a framework for IC circuit and system design, which uses a mixed media approach to aid engineers in modeling designs for high level synthesis. Design tools are being built on top of a graphical input language and a tabular intermediate representation. The representation uses a general design model that includes synchronous and asynchronous behavior, timing constraints and protocols between communicating designs. Specific research tasks are: 1. An environment for high level synthesis which provides multiple input media for design conceptualization and capture; 2. Inclusion of partially designed structures and user bindings into the environment; 3. Modeling guidelines for design description in VHDL which support high level synthesis and simulation. This supplement provides support for a minority graduate student.
