Synthesis Methods and Tools
As part of our larger design efforts, we also investigate design
methodologies and tools for asynchronous systems. We have developed a
significant synthesis tool suite, and the theory that supports this
tool suite is contained in some of the papers below.
Most of the theory we have developed is a direct result of problems
encountered when using existing synthesis methods for asynchronous
design. Therefore, we have not developed any new theory unless that
extension was useful in some design effort.
