ARSDES: an automated Reed-Solomon decoder and encoder synthesis system
Kazushi Sato, M. Hattori, Noboru Ohya, M. Sasano, N. Shirota · 2002
This paper describes the architecture and implementation of the automated synthesis system for Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder and encoder. Given the specifications of a desired RS codec circuit, ARSDES automatically synthesizes, then outputs a circuit in verilog-HDL. The system is constructed using an object-oriented technique so it is easy to maintain and extend the system. A new method is used to construct the automated synthesis system by generating templates of the source code of the system from a description of existing hardware.
