An effective way to deal with this problem is to perform high-level design and testing early in the development process using system-level design techniques. After building a prototype, engineers can ...

High-Level Synthesis (HLS) has emerged as a pivotal technology in the transformation of algorithmic descriptions into efficient hardware designs. Coupled with Design Space Exploration (DSE), HLS ...

Concurrent design of a chip and its packaging environment is becoming more important than ever for several reasons. Designing a large, high power die, e.g. a System-on-Chip (SoC), without considering ...

Transaction level modeling (TLM) is gaining favor over register-transfer level (RTL) for design components because of its many advantages—including faster design and verification times, easier ...

Irrational exuberance is running rampant. Design managers believe all their systems engineers and software programmers are going to be able to drive the hardware design process from a high-level ...
