{"product_id":"high-level-vlsi-synthesis-raul-camposano-9781461367710","title":"High-Level VLSI Synthesis","description":"The time has come for high-level synthesis. When research into synthesizing hardware from abstract, program-like de- scriptions started in the early 1970' s, there was no automated path from the register- transfer design produced by high-level synthesis to a complete hardware imple- mentation. As a result, it was very difficult to measure the effectiveness of high- level synthesis methods; it was also hard to justify to users the need to automate architecture design when low-level design had to be completed manually. Today's more mature CAD techniques help close the gap between an automat- ically synthesized design and a manufacturable design. Market pressures encour- age designers to make use of any and all automated tools. Layout synthesis, logic synthesis, and specialized datapath generators make it feasible to quickly imple- ment a register-transfer design in silicon, leaving designers more time to consider architectural improvements. As IC design becomes more automated, customers are increasing their demands; today's leading edge designers using logic synthesis systems are training themselves to be tomorrow's consumers of high-level synthe- sis systems. The need for very fast turnaround, a competitive fabrication market WhlCh makes small-quantity ASIC manufacturing possible, and the ever growing co: n- plexity of the systems being designed, all make higher-level design automaton inevitable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Raul Camposano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1461367719\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781461367710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 390\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.83d","brand":"Raul Camposano","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47930801684735,"sku":"9781461367710","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_397cc6b4-cf5a-45eb-b200-9b3f3c83b9f5.jpg?v=1766344367","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/high-level-vlsi-synthesis-raul-camposano-9781461367710","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
