Abstract
By means of tables, characters, and the like displayed on the screen of a CRT monitor, a functional diagram editor element can generate, on the screen of the CRT monitor, a functional diagram for representing the operation of a logic circuit. A functional diagram check element detects the presence or absence of a contradiction in the generated functional diagram. Furthermore, a functional simulation element can perform the functional verification of the functional diagram free from contradiction. A hardware-description-language conversion element can generate a hardware description language from the functional diagram in which the circuit operation has undergone error correction. A logic synthesis element can generate netlist information from said hardware description language.
