TRIP: an automated technology mapping system
Saya Suzuki, T. Bitoh, M. Kakimoto, Kazutoshi Takahashi, Takao Sugimoto · 1987
A technology mapping system, used for computer design in NEC, is presented. The features of this system are technology conversion and logical/physical optimization, based on a rule base, partitioning support, conversion verification and special layout consideration. This system is practically used for many applications for technology mapping, including redesigning an existing total unit into a new unit, based on up-to-date LSI technology. The resulting effect is quick inputting of integrated circuit technology progress into practical computer design area.
