This paper analyzes the reasons why behavioral synthesis was never widely accepted by designers, and then we propose a practical solution to this problem. The main breakthrough of this new approach is the redefinition of the synthesis flow at the behavioral level to better profit from the powerful of RTL and FSM synthesis tools. The effectiveness of this new methodology is illustrated with two large design examples: a 2-million-transistor ATM shaper design and a motion estimator for a video codec (H261 standard).
