Optimal VLSI Architectural Synthesis: Area, Performance and Testability

by Catherine H. Gebotys and Mohamed I. Elmasry

Although research in architectural synthesis has been conducted for over ten years it has had very little impact on industry. This in our view is due to the inability of current architectural synthesizers to provide area-delay competitive (or "optimal") architectures, that will support interfaces to analog, asynchronous, and other complex processes. They also fail to incorporate testability. The OASIC (optimal architectural synthesis with interface...
