Logic Design and Simulation (v. 2) (Advances in CAD for VLSI S.) - Tapa dura

Logic design and simulation link system design to electrical engineering and form a key issue in contemporary VLSI design. This volume examines the past, present and future of this topic. The first part of the book treats subjects from logic synthesis, which is followed by a review of logic simulation and related topics. Finally, the book takes a look at the future of silicon compilation and artificial intelligence, showing how programming is gaining importance in chip development, allowing access to non-experts. It highlights the fact that VLSI design systems of the future will be characterized by an efficient combination of traditional algorithmic processes and the new knowledge-based AI techniques.
