Abstract

In system LSI design, a desirable system is one that allows the designer to describe, partition, and verify systems, and to generate circuits efficiently. In this paper, we describe a C-based system LSI design system called Bach which we have developed. Using the example of an MEPG-4 video codec design, we summarize its design flow, effects and current issues.
