Introduction to Hardware-Software Co-Design presents a number of issues of fundamental importance for the design of integrated hardware software products such as embedded, communication, and multimedia systems. This book is a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of hardware/software co-design. Co-design is still a new field but one which has substantially matured over the past few years. This book, written by leading international experts, covers all the major topics including: + fundamental issues in co-design; + hardware/software co-synthesis algorithms; + prototyping and emulation; + target architectures; + compiler techniques; + specification and verification; + system-level specification. Special chapters describe in detail several leading-edge co-design systems including Cosyma, LYCOS, and Cosmos. Introduction to Hardware-Software Co-Design contains sufficient material for use by teachers and students in an advanced course of hardware/software co-design.It also contains extensive explanation of the fundamental concepts of the subject and the necessary background to bring practitioners up-to-date on this increasingly important topic. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Hardware/Software Co-Design: Principles and Practice (Jorgen Staunstrup, Wayne Wolf)
