Abstract :
FPGA-based synthesis roofs require information about behaviour and architecture to make effective use of the limited number of cells typically available. A hardware description language which models layout and behaviour is used to elegantly specify circuit architecture. This source level information is used to efficiently translate circuit descriptions onto FPGA devices
