Abstract

In this paper, we propose a methodology based on genetic programming to automatically generate data-flow based specifications for hardware designs of combinational digital circuits. We aim at allowing automatic generation of balanced hardware specifications for a given input/output behaviour. It minimises space while maintaining reasonable response time.
