Hardware/Software Co-Design for Data Flow Dominated Embedded Systems

Více o knize

The book introduces a co-design system that integrates hardware and software for modern microelectronics applications, emphasizing the need for precise cost and performance metrics. It outlines a novel approach to accurately derive software implementation costs from processor data and code size, while performance is analyzed through static methods. For hardware, costs are estimated using high-level synthesis tools, with performance also assessed via static analysis. This method stands out by providing reliable figures to inform design decisions, enhancing the overall design process.
