Embedded system virtualization for executable specifications and use case modeling
To reduce the time-to-market of embedded system projects, virtual hardware platforms offer a method to develop hardware-dependent software and application software before production hardware is available. However, for true system-level specification and architecture optimization, full-system virtualization is required, including abstract models of HW, behavioral models of application SW and use cases.
Low power LDPC decoder created using high level synthesis
This article gives an example in which an HLS tool is used, together with architectural innovation, to create a low power LDPC decoder.
Book excerpt: 'Project management of complex and embedded systems'
The management of automotive design projects provides a window into how to handle other complex development and manufacturing efforts.
Is virtualization right for your application?
A brief "no-bull" tutorial on how virtualization actually works and where it is most useful.
Using open-source GNU, Eclipse & Linux to develop multicore Cell apps: Part 4
In this fourth in a five part series, Matthew Scarpino, author of "Programming the Cell Processor," describes how to use open source GCC tools, Linux and the Eclipse IDE to develop multicore apps. Part 4: Compiling and Running Simulated Applications
The virtual vehicle: making power management easier
Synopsys provides an interesting design article on how to improve the your electrical system and power management in vehicle design by using the virtual vehicle concept and simulation-based development methodologies.
Serial Boot: An alternative way of booting SoC externally
This article deals with the Serial boot protocol and preparing a boot code for the serial booting.
Tackling the non-technical challenges in the design of manufacturing processes
It is important not to underestimate the non-technical challenges of process development that can occur at any stage of development. However, a PDES can support the whole flow " from the first device idea to the transfer into production, closing the development loop and feeding today's real world results into the ideas of tomorrow.
