What are the challenges that need to be addressed in architecture synthesis?

There are several challenges that need to be addressed in architecture synthesis, including:

1. Complexity: With the increasing complexity of modern systems, architecture synthesis needs to deal with complex trade-offs between different design objectives such as performance, power consumption, and reliability.

2. Heterogeneity: Modern systems are often composed of heterogeneous components with different characteristics, which can make architecture synthesis more challenging.

3. Design Space Exploration: Architecture synthesis needs to explore a large design space to identify the best architecture for a given set of design constraints.

4. Timing Constraints: The architecture should be designed to meet timing constraints, and this requires careful consideration of the timing characteristics of components and interconnects.

5. Verification: The synthesis process should ensure that the design is correct and meets the required functionality, timing, and constraints.

6. Energy Efficiency: The architecture should be designed to minimize the energy consumption of the system.

7. Reusability: The architecture should be designed with reusability in mind, allowing for efficient design reuse in future projects.
