24、CAL COMMISSION _ DOCUMENTATION ON DESIGN AUTOMATION SUBJECTS THE BIRDS-EYE VIEW OF DESIGN LANGUAGES (BVDL) FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). Th
25、e object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specif
26、ications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations
27、liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters ex
28、press, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Comm
29、ittees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC Natio
30、nal Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does
31、not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have
32、 the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoe
33、ver, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publicati
34、ons is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The main task of IEC
35、technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for example “state of the art“. IEC 62856, w
36、hich is a technical report, has been prepared by IEC technical committee 91: Electronics assembly technology: The text of this technical report is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 91/1085/DTR 91/1101/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this technica
37、l report can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web sit
38、e under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be 4 TR 62856 IEC:2013 reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. IMPORTANT The colour inside logo on the cover page of this publication indicates that it conta
39、ins colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding of its contents. Users should therefore print this document using a colour printer. TR 62856 IEC:2013 5 INTRODUCTION The automation of design and manufacturing technologies in electronic industries has been evolving world-wi
40、de for over three decades with remarkable development speed. Electronic design automation (EDA) technology enables the conceptualization, implementation and validation of electronic systems, that is, transforms the ideas and objectives of the system designers into manufacturable and testable represe
41、ntations in a cost-effective way. It is classified into three key categories such as design methodologies, design libraries and design tools. Standardization involves computer-sensible representations throughout the overall design processes which integrate design libraries and design tools to build
42、a design ecosystem. In the semiconductor industry EDA technologies have been substantially contributing to the unprecedented industry growth for three decades. To emerging new product lines such as microcontroller, microprocessor, ASIC, FPGA, memories, analog and mixed-signal and System on a chip (S
43、oC) they have been continuously providing a wide range of solutions to meet critical requirements on design productivity enhancement and design quality improvement. The EDA technical committee (EDA-TC) was formed in JEITA in 1990 in order to take initiatives for international EDA standardization in
44、Japan. Since then, it has been contributing design language standardization such as EDIF, VHDL, Verilog HDL, Delay and Power Calculation (DPC), System C, System Verilog and Power Format, which led to forming the new working group at which experts from the industry and academia were invited and to wo
45、rk with IEC TC93, IEEE DASC, Accellera, Open SystemC Initiatives (OSCI) and others. After having been active for over two decades the need was felt for a birds-eye view of the existing tens of design languages, and to enhance or develop them in order to set the strategy towards international EDA sta
46、ndardization. EDA-TC initiated the project in early 2009 to develop the Birds-eye View of Design Languages (BVDL) spreadsheet documentation. It developed the first version in March 2010, in order to have an important participation of design technology experts from the semiconductor industry and acad
47、emia. It finalized the BVDL documentation combined with the spreadsheet as a JEITA technical report in March 2011. 6 TR 62856 IEC:2013 DOCUMENTATION ON DESIGN AUTOMATION SUBJECTS THE BIRDS-EYE VIEW OF DESIGN LANGUAGES (BVDL) 1 Scope The BVDL originally aims to make full use of planning and decision-
48、making on EDA standardization activities for a technical expert as well as a manager in JEITA. It facilitates the understanding of the various design languages to show their positioning and features. Also it provides easy overviews of each design language for a newcomer to the EDA standards communit
49、y and/or for a designer as a user of an EDA design ecosystem. Especially for a design language developer that aims to directly join design language development and voting for standardization, it provides metrics to check for duplication among similar languages, consistency to develop the design ecosystem and future challenges for design languages. EDA standards provide a mechanism to define common semantics for electr
