PREFACE

Digital system design requires rigorous modeling and simulation analysis that eliminates design risks and potential harm to users. Thus, the educational objective of this book is to provide an introduction to digital system design through modeling, synthesis, and simulation computer-aided design (CAD) tools. This book provides an introduction to analytical and computational methods that allow students and users to model, synthesize, and simulate digital principles using very high-speed integratedcircuit hardware description language (VHDL) programming. We present the practical application of modeling and synthesis to digital system design to establish a basis for effective design and provide a systematic tutorial of how basic digital systems function. In doing so, we integrate theoretical principles, discrete mathematical models, computer simulations, and basics methods of analysis. Students and users will learn how to use modeling, synthesis, and simulation concepts and CAD tools to design models for digital systems that will allow them to gain insights into their functions and the mechanisms of their control. Students will learn how to integrate basic models into more complex digital systems. Although the approach designed in this book focuses on undergraduate students, it can also be used for modeling and simulation students who have a limited engineering background with an inclination to digital systems for visualization purposes.
