Bluespec Technical Overview
The Bluespec toolset, the only ESL synthesis solution for control logic and complex datapaths, significantly accelerates hardware design and
reduces verification costs. Bluespec presents hardware designers an exciting new way to implement a design with correct-by-construction
control logic synthesis while retaining full control over the architecture and performance of the design. This technical overview
provides a review of the toolset, examples, technology and key benefits.
Next-generation High Level Synthesis: Cadence C-to-Silicon Compiler
Cadence C-to-Silicon Compiler (CtoS) is next-generation high-level synthesis technology for automating SoC IP development and reuse. Using embedded logic synthesis, CtoS automatically generates synthesizable RTL and/or technology-mapped gates for both datapath and control functions, starting from timed and untimed C/C++/SystemC(r) algorithm descriptions. Using CtoS, designers can reduce engineering effort by up to 90%, while achieving quality of results at or above whatever is possible using best manual RTL coding practices.
