The high-level synthesis research described in this book is part of an on-going synthesis research project at Stanford University called the Olympus synthesis system. We would like to acknowledge and thank the many people who have contributed to this research. 

Hercules and Hebe, along with the rest of the Olympus Synthesis System, are publicly avail-aUe. Infonnation on software distribution can be obtained by sending electronic mail to olym-puschronos. tanfordedu from any computer connected on the Internet... 

In addition, we developed a hardware description language called Hard-wareC with particular attention to ASIC design specification issues. The system implementation of the algtaithms is provided by programs Hercules and Hebe, which serve as the front-end to Stanford s Olympus Synthesis system. They have been applied to the synthesis of benchmaric examples and to some chip designs at Stanford University.
