Abstract :
Presents a software environment for system level estimation and partitioning (SLEP). The software is developed based on the structural analysis estimation method and the adaptive weight partitioning algorithm, which were previously proposed by the authors. The application of the SLEP program to rapid prototyping systems is also discussed. Examples of estimation and partitioning of VHDL designs in the SLEP environment are presented. Through these experimental examples, the effectiveness and efficiency of the SLEP system are illustrated
