Summary on Grant Application Form |
Investigate some theoretical topics arising from ongoing research on the EPSRC project 'Checking Equivalence Between Synthesised Logic and Non-Synthesised Behavioural Prototypes'. The semantics of the VHDL and Verilog hardware description languages will be studied in depth with the goal of developing a set of core primitives that can be used to define the simulation cycles of both languages in a uniform framework. Existing simulation, verification and synthesis tools for Verilog developed at Cambridge will be reworked to use this core and hence made to support both Verilog and VHDL.
