Abstract :
Presents the progress made at the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals in putting together an AHPL based design automation system using indigenous effort, software tools developed locally and in US universities into a cohesive system. The AHPL language is used as the frontend specification medium due to its closeness to hardware implementation issues. The system is modular and technology independent so that future extensions and specific implementation issues can be added/modified
