            Abstract : 
The application of high level synthesis techniques in connection with highly programmable VLSI (very large scale integration) architectures is presented. Very early prototype realizations of subcomponents of complex systems can be achieved for real-time test runs if automatic synthesis is applied. The efficiency and applicability of this approach will be demonstrated with realistic mechatronic applications and a rapid prototyping board based on FPGAs
