As illustrated in Figure 3.1, two hierarchical models are maintained for an SoC design: a logical hierarchy and a physical hierarchy.

In addition to the top node of each model representing the full-chip SoC, there are correspondence points throughout the two hierarchies. Below the correspondence nodes in each model, the hierarchical decomposition diverges.
