Abstract
A unified data model for creating a circuit design for a heterogeneous integrated circuit is provided. The unified data model is stored as a data structure in computer hardware. The unified data model includes a unified netlist specifying the circuit design and a unified device model representing the heterogeneous integrated circuit. The unified netlist includes netlist objects configured to communicate over bitwise connections and network connections representing packet-based communications. The unified netlist may be mapped to the unified device model using computer hardware. Using the computer hardware, at least a portion of the device model may be displayed in coordination with at least a portion of the unified netlist mapped thereto.
