Abstract

Generating simulation models is a knowledge intensive, time consuming, and error-prone task in implementing a simulator. The main purpose of this research was to find an easy, fast, and reliable way to generate simulation models and model library. To solve this problem, the Automatic Element Routine Generation System (AERO) is developed as an efficient way for automatic model development using domain specific automatic programming techniques. Behavioral and structural models are generated from Boolean equations, truth tables, HDL descriptions, schematic diagrams, or incomplete specifications. Results show that the system could greatly reduce the cost of simulation model generation for CAD systems and, consequently, reduce the design cycle considerably.
