Embedded Software Design and Programming of Multiprocessor System-on-Chip Simulink and System C Case Studies
Embedded Software Design and Programming of Multiprocessor System-on-Chip Simulink and System C Case Studies by Katalin Popovici, published by Springer New York on May 3, 2012, spans 290 pages and is presented in English. This book provides an overview of embedded software design concepts specifically tailored for complex multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) architectures, which are essential for modern multimedia and telecom applications. It addresses the challenges of programming these heterogeneous systems, which incorporate various processing units and communication schemes, by offering a systematic approach to software design.
Readers will find a detailed exploration of a full software design methodology that facilitates the high-level mapping of applications onto MPSoC. The book emphasizes the integration of Simulink for high-level programming and SystemC for low-level software development, illustrated through numerous case studies and examples. This comprehensive approach aims to enhance understanding of the intricate relationship between hardware and software in MPSoC environments, making it a valuable resource for those involved in software development and engineering within the fields of technology and electronics.
Official synopsis Publisher
Current multimedia and telecom applications require complex, heterogeneous multiprocessor system on chip (MPSoC) architectures with specific communication infrastructure in order to achieve the required performance. Heterogeneous MPSoC includes different types of processing units (DSP, microcontroller, ASIP) and different communication schemes (fast links, non standard memory organization and access).
Programming an MPSoC requires the generation of efficient software running on MPSoC from a high level environment, by using the characteristics of the architecture. This task is known to be tedious and error prone, because it requires a combination of high level programming environments with low level software design.
This book gives an overview of concepts related to embedded software design for MPSoC. It details a full software design approach, allowing systematic, high-level mapping of software applications on heterogeneous MPSoC. This approach is based on gradual refinement of hardware/software interfaces and simulation models allowing to validate the software at different abstraction levels.
This book combines Simulink for high level programming and SystemC for the low level software development. This approach is illustrated with multiple examples of application software and MPSoC architectures that can be used for deep understanding of software design for MPSoC.
