Design Automation for Embedded Systems

In this paper we present an extension to the co-design approach based on LOTOS presented in Fourth International Workshop on Hardware-Software Co-Design, 1996. In this new version we add a prototyping stage to our design flow, that allows to validate ...

This paper describes a flexible board-level rapid-prototyping environment for embedded control applications. The environment is based on an APTIX board populated by Xilinx FPGA devices, a 68HC11 emulator, and APTIX programmable interconnect devices. ...

In this paper, we present a hardware-software cosimulation environment for heterogeneous systems. To be an efficient and convenient verification environment for the rapid prototyping of heterogeneous systems consisting of hardware and software ...

The design of embedded processor circuits for the control of electromechanical systems, in a unified environment, offers many advantages including reduced system design and debug cycles and shorter time to market. Simulation plays a very important role ...

For functional validation of heterogeneous embedded systems, hardware/software (Hw/Sw) cosimulation methodology is mandatory. This paper deals with a distributed cosimulation environment for heterogeneous systems prototyping. The cosimulation ...

The Wearable Computer Project is a testbed integrating research on rapid design and prototyping. Based on representative examples from six generations of wearable computers, the paper focuses on the differences in rapid prototyping using custom design ...
