Abstract

An apparatus and method that improve design efficiency when designing an LSI. A selector module generating section inputs IP connection information describing input/output flows of signals between IPs included in an LSI to be designed, analyzes the inputted IP connection information, and generates a selector module of a selector that matches the input/output flows of signals between IPs described in the IP connection information. A macro module generating section generates a macro module in which relationships between the selector and function blocks are indicated, using the selector module generated by the selector module generating section.
