Abstract
Processes and arrangements for describing a system-on-chip at an abstract level. Contemplated is the creation of a “virtual design” and its automatic synthesis into a “real design that includes IP blocks from a library as well as all required interconnections and interface logic between them. Significant reductions in the complexity, time and cost associated with system-on-chip designs can be enjoyed as a result.
