Abstract :
Interval Temporal Logic (ITL) has been proposed as a vehicle for high level behavioural specification of digital circuits. This paper considers, by means of an example, how a circuit definition might be synthesised based on detailed analysis of a specification expressed in ITL, and compares the result with that generated by an automated synthesis tool
