Abstract :
An intelligent assistant for the design of microprocessor based systems from an initial set of specifications is under development. The data in the system are based on the ICs available in the market and an ASIC library of components. The aim is to enable noncomputer or nonVLSI experts to design digital systems corresponding to their requirements without having to learn the principles of digital electronics and VLSI design
