"VLSI (very large scale integration) technology is evolving to the point where complete systems are being integrated on a single chip, including ASICs, embedded processing, hardware and software control, analog and digital signal processing, sensors and actuators. In addition there is a demand for many systems to be compact, portable, with wireless communication, efficient production and low battery power operation. This book presents novel developments addressing the conception, design, CAD and realization of such new systems. Among the important issues presented are: VLSI systems on a chip; electronic design automation; ultra low voltage and low power; automatic synthesis; VLSI applications. The book comprises the selected proceedings of the International Conference on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI '97) which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and was held in Gramado, Brazil in August 1997. It is a state-of-the-book for researchers and managers working on system integration, design and CAD."
