Abstract :
A technique is presented for functional information extraction, which is the transformation of design descriptions from the logic circuit level to the functional level. The authors have developed a functional information extraction system, FINES, which can deal with both logic functions and arithmetic functions. The technique has made use of the characteristics of the functions in order to perform function extraction independent of the circuit structures.<>
