Description

The drastic performance, flexibility and energy-efficiency requirements of embedded applications drive the System-on-Chip integration towards heterogeneous multiprocessor platforms. Electronic System Level (ESL) design methodologies and tools have emerged to tackle the challenges of such complex SoC designs prior to RTL and silicon availability. In particular SystemC based Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) has matured as a standards-based approach to model SoC platforms for the purpose of Software development, system integration and verification.

In response to the vast complexity of heterogeneous multi-processor platforms the "Architects View" is emerging as a new TLM use-case to address the architecture definition and application mapping by means of timing approximate transaction-level models.

Integrated System-Level Modeling of Network-on-Chip Enabled Multi-Processor Platforms first gives a comprehensive update on recent developments in the area of SoC platforms and ESL design methodologies. The main contribution is the rigorous definition of a framework for modeling at the timing approximate level of abstraction. Subsequently this book presents a set of tools for the creation and exploration of timing approximate SoC platform models.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

**描述**

嵌入式應用對性能、靈活性和能效的嚴格要求推動了系統單晶片(System-on-Chip, SoC)整合朝向異構多處理器平台發展。電子系統級(Electronic System Level, ESL)設計方法論和工具已經出現,以應對在 RTL 和矽片可用性之前,這類複雜 SoC 設計所面臨的挑戰。特別是基於 SystemC 的交易級建模(Transaction Level Modeling, TLM)已經成熟,成為一種基於標準的方法,用於建模 SoC 平台,以便進行軟體開發、系統整合和驗證。

為了應對異構多處理器平台的巨大複雜性,"架構師視角"(Architects View)作為一種新的 TLM 使用案例正在出現,旨在通過時間近似的交易級模型來解決架構定義和應用映射的問題。

**集成系統級建模的網路晶片(Network-on-Chip)啟用的多處理器平台**首先對 SoC 平台和 ESL 設計方法論領域的最新發展進行了全面更新。主要貢獻是對時間近似抽象層級建模框架的嚴格定義。隨後,本書介紹了一組工具,用於創建和探索時間近似的 SoC 平台模型。
