Abstract:
1. A non-transitory, computer-readable recording medium storing therein an Intellectual Property (IP) model generating program that causes a computer to execute: receiving selection of an IP model; extracting configuration data of the selected IP model from an IP model configuration database; extracting, based on an ID identifying an IP defined by the extracted configuration data, a source code of the IP from an IP database in which IDs of IPs and source code of the IPs are stored and correlated with each other; extracting, based on a connection code ID identifying a connection code defined by the extracted configuration data, a connection code from a connection attribute database in which connection code IDs and connection codes indicating connecting relations among the IPs are stored and correlated with each other; and outputting, as the IP model, the extracted source code of the IP and the extracted connection code, wherein the computer is capable of accessing the IP database; the connection attribute database; the IP model configuration database storing the configuration data indicating a configuration of the IP model defined by the IPs and the connecting relations; an IP table storing attributes of the IPs correlated with the IDs of the IPs; and a connection code table storing connection attributes of the connection codes correlated with the connection code IDs, the IP model is an abstraction model utilized in a high-level design of a hardware and is obtained by modeling the hardware, each of the IPs is a configuration component of the IP model and represents one of functions of the hardware, and the IPs include:
