Abstract
The present invention relates to a graphical user interface for a system that compiles MATLAB models for synthesis into register transfer level code. The graphical user interface provides a visual representation of the design in a manner that allows the user to more easily understand the algorithm being modeled. From this interface, the user may also modify the type, size and dimensions of variables from dialog boxes. The system allows the user to efficiently compare and verify a fixed-point design versus the MATLAB design. The interface allows the user to then make further changes to the design, or synthesize the design into a register transfer level file.
