Abstract :
In this paper we give a model for predicting the shape of cost-speed tradeoff curves for pipelined designs. The model includes prediction of the number of operators, registers and multiplexers from a behavioral specification. It has been verified with the designs generated by an automated pipeline synthesis program, Sehwa. This model was developed as a part of the ADAM Advanced Design Automation System of the University of Southern California.
