Abstract
A computer system for simulating an ASP comprises first processor means including execution means for simulating a functional model in a high level language and output means for outputting the state of the functional model at the end of a predetermined simulation phase, means for converting the functional model, including its state at the end of the predetermined simulation phase, into a simulation language for simulating the ASP at circuit level, and second processor means arranged to execute the simulation language to simulate the ASP at circuit level for a subsequent simulation phase.
