This paper discusses aBlox -a specification notation that we defined for automated synthesis of mixed-signal systems. aBlox addresses two important aspects of mixed-signal system specification: (1) description of functionality and performance issues and (2) expression of analog-digital interactions. The semantics of aBlox embeds concepts and rules of a computational model that we developed for mixed-signal systems. Finally, the paper shows some mixed-signal specifications that we developed in aBlox.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
