Abstract
The system synthesizer of the present invention is provided for synthesizing a system containing from a system description, the system description containing a permanent connection statement describing an access from a first circuit to a memory element in an interface circuit, and a behavioral sequential operation statement describing the operation of a second circuit which contains an access from the second circuit to the memory element in the interface circuit. The system synthesizer comprises: a separator for separating the permanent connection statement from the behavioral sequential operation statement; a determining processing unit for determining whether a variable in the system description is ans interface variable indicating the memory element in the interface circuit; an interface circuit synthesizer for synthesizing the interface circuit from the permanent connection statement separated by the separator; a behavior synthesizer for synthesizing a sequential operation circuit from the behavioral sequential operation statement separated by the separator; a merging processing unit for merging the interface circuit with the sequential operation circuit via the memory element …
