- BEST
 
- 
Behavior Extracting Synthesis Technology.  Synplify employs BEST by
abstracting circuit behavior to a high level and maintaining it
throughout the entire synthesis process. 
 
- DST
 
 - 
Direct Synthesis Technology.  Synplify employs DST to map directly to
the architecture (LUTs, CLBs, etc.) of the device part, not to gates
(AND/OR).
 
- HDL Analyst
 
 - 
A graphical tool that automatically generates hierarchical RTL-level
and technology-primitive level (after Synplify maps to LUTs, CLBs, etc.)
schematics from the source HLD design to visualize the synthesis results.
 
- SCOPE
 
 - 
Synthesis Constraint OPtimization Environment. A multi-level graphical
constraints editor that provides fine-grain user control over the 
synthesis results.
 
- Synplify
 
 - 
Synplicity's synthesis engine.  Synplify takes Verilog and VHDL code
as input and outputs an optimized netlist in most popular FPGA vendor
formats.
 
- TCL
 
 - 
Tool Control Language.  Industry standard scripting language for controlling
software applications.  Synplicity has extended TCL with some synthesis
commands so that it can be used as a scripting language to run Synplify.
