....of the process is guaranteed by construction, eliminating the functional checking between pre and pos synthesis simulation. This approach characterises the synthesis process as a simple parallelisation of a sequential language. There are several works towards a formalization of Verilog [2, 9, 11, 18]. The algebraic laws used in our synthesis process can be justi ed in terms of the operational semantics of Verilog and the concept of bisimulation [8, 9, 10, 18] This approach addresses a still open question in hardware design [3] This paper is organized as follows. The Section 2 de nes the ....

....which will be revisited in Appendix. There have been many experiments in use of Duration Calculus for real time programming. An occam like language was formalised in [18] where a program is identified with two DC formulae, describing terminating and non terminating behaviours respectively. Pace [10] also proposed a denotational semantics for Verilog, but he neglected its shared variable feature. In order to describe that feature, Pandya and Dang proposed to use WDC [11] Xu [14] also gave a denotational semantics based on WDC to a subset of Verilog with shared variable feature. However it ....

....for comparing the output of the hardware description without actually having a hardware interpretation from such modules to hardware. Recently, transformations have been implemented in synthesis tools, allowing certain types of behavioural modules to be automatically compiled into hardware. In [Pac98,PH98] we have defined the semantics of Verilog HDL [Ope93,IEE95] a commercial HDL, widely used in industry. As one of the benefits of this formalisation, was the verification of a compilation procedure from a subset of procedural Verilog code to a more hardware oriented subset of the language. The ....
....[HJ94,PL91,May90] except that the output is not a circuit, but another program in the same language. 2 The Semantics of Verilog 2. 1 Modules The semantics of Verilog are given in terms of Relational Duration Calculus [PH98] A more complete presentation of these semantics can also be found in [Pac98]. We assume the reader to be familiar with Duration Calculus [ZHRR91] We assume that each module P has a number of output wires out(P ) to which no other module may write. Also, the assignments to the outputs of a module must take some time. All modules are allowed to read the output variables of ....
