Abstract :
ANNA (artificial neural network analyzer), an integrated environment for the behavioral design of architectures capable of supporting ANNs, is introduced. This CAD system is a customization of PADS (parallel architectures design system), a general environment for the behavioral design of parallel architectures. Subsystems for evaluation of defect and fault tolerance capabilities of the architecture are discussed
