VHDL-based communication and synchronization synthesis
Wolfgang Ecker, Manfred Huber · European Design Automation Conference · 1995
This paper describes an approach for VHDL-based communication and synchronization synthesis. This design step transforms a system level VHDL description into an RT-level description. The idea is, not to synthesize system level implementations of communication, and synchronization mechanisms but to perform the synthesis step as a mapping step of an abstract communication or synchronization mechanism to one of a set of RT-level implementations. The major sub-problem, which needed to be solved for the synthesis algorithm was the topology dependent mapping of implementations.
