Abstract(in English) In this paper, we present techniques to automatically generate high-level C description after ECO (Engineering Change Order) at RTL design stage. The modified RTL implementation after ECO is used to generate an equivalent C description with our proposed template-based method. The templates are generated from the original design by replacing one or more statements with symbolic variables, and refined to generate the new C description. The refinement process can be formulated as a QBF (Quantified Boolean Formula) problem, and can be solved by using SAT solver in an incremental way. The experimental results on several practical examples show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
