Current multimedia and telecom applications require complex, heterogeneous multiprocessor system on chip (MPSo C) architectures with specific communication infrastructure in order to achieve the required performance. Heterogeneous MPSo C includes different types of processing units (DSP, microcontroller, ASIP) and different communication schemes (fast links, non standard memory organization and access).
Programming an MPSo C requires the generation of efficient software running on MPSo C 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 MPSo C. It details a full software design approach, allowing systematic, high-level mapping of software applications on heterogeneous MPSo C. 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 System C for the low level software development. This approach is illustrated with multiple examples of application software and MPSo C architectures that can be used for deep understanding of software design for MPSo C.
