Abstract :
In this contribution we show how the object oriented programming language Java can be used for the specification of synthesizable hardware. In this context the JavaBeans component model plays an important role. We show an integration of the JavaBeans model which allows the specification of hardware from different views and on different levels of abstraction. Furthermore we point out restrictions of the language necessary to perform high level synthesis.
