HARDWARE DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE FOR SPECIFICATION OF DIGITAL SYSTEMS

The new hardware description language presented in this article was developed for the Computer Aid for Recursive Synthesis (CARS) system. System CARS has been developed to assist the designer in the synthesis phase of digital system design. CARS applies a top-down structured approach in the design process and can be used at any user defined level of refinement. The description language developed for CARS is well suited to describe behavioural concepts and structures as well
