Abstract LSI Model and Its Associated High-Level Synthesis Algorithm for Deep Submicron Technologies

在本研究中，我们首先建立一个抽象的大规模集成电路模型，在此模型中，我们引入了大规模集成电路芯片内部寄存器、控制器和功能单元之间的“逻辑连接”和“物理连接”。使用我们的抽象LSI模型，我们可以有很好的定义之间的接口，高层设计和物理级设计。其次，针对抽象LSI模型，提出了一种高层次综合算法，实现了物理综合感知的高层次综合。我们的模拟结果表明，我们的抽象LSI模型及其相关的高层次综合优于几个典型的LSI综合模型。

In this reseach, we have firstly developed an abstract LSI model, where we introduce "logical connection" and "physical connection" among registers, controllers, and functinal units inside an LSI chip. Using our abstract LSI model, we can have well-defined interface between high-level design and physical-level design. Secondly, we have developed a high-level synthesis algorithm for our abstract LSI mode, which realizes physical-synthesis-aware high-level sythnsis. Our simulation results demonstrate that our abstract LSI model and its associated high-level sysnthsis outperform several convetntional LSI synthesis modethods.
