| Abstract: | Zhu and Johnson have proposed a method of specification description description for hardware architecture. The method is based on the motion of abstract data types, and in this framework, the problem of automatic synthesis of microprogram as the serialization problem has been forementioned. This paper proposes a semidecision procedure for the forementioned problem which uses E-unification to prune the search space of solutions. Also, as an execution example of the procedure, a specification description of a simple CPU with basic components and an example of the problem under this specification are treated, and its performance is discussed. It is shown through the observation that the pruning by E-unification is highly effective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
