Automatic Circuit Extraction Using Program Slicing
Sikun Li · Journal of National University of Defense Technology · 2003
The design extraction from HDL description has been greatly needed in modern VLSI design process,such as the design (verification),low power analysis,test generation and so on.This paper presents a new circuit extraction method using (program) (slicing) (technique),and develops an elegant theoretical basis, based on program slicing, for circuit extraction from Verilog (description. With) (the) (technique we) (can) obtain a chaining slice for each given signal of interest.Our method has advantage in its fine grain,without (writing-style) (limitation) (and) in dealing with more Verilog components characteristics.The technique has been used in the design process and the (results) (show) (its) (convenience),efficiency and good practicability.
