Abstract
A high-level synthesis device executes high-level synthesis on a behavioral description including a plurality of loop descriptions and a logical description. An extraction unit extracts loop descriptions that can be merged with the logical description without changing a function, as loop description candidates, from the plurality of loop descriptions. The extraction unit also calculates characteristics of a circuit of a case where the logical description is merged with each of the loop description candidates, as circuit characteristics. A determination unit determines a loop description to be merged with the logical description, from the loop description candidates based on the circuit characteristics. A merge unit merges the logical description with the loop description determined by the determination unit.
