Custom Computing Machines vs. Hardware/Software Codesign: From a globalized point of view
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper gives a generalized survey on Customized Computing with research activities of the emerging new research scenes of Application Specific Instruction Set Processors (ASIPs) and Custom Computing Machines (CCMs). Both scenes have strong relations to Hardware/Software Co-Design. CCMs are mainly based on field-programmable add-on hardware to accelerate microprocessors or computers. The CCM scene tries to make standard hardware more soft for flexible adaptation to a variety of particular application environments. The ASIP scene tries to design an instruction set as an interface between hardware and application closely matching their characteristics.

Hardware/Software Co-design is a starting point in Embedded Systems Architecture Education
Embedded Systems Architectures are hard to design, and there is no generally accepted method of doing it. In recent years, this problem has become even harder because of the wide variety of programmable components (FPGA, ASIP, DSP, ...). We propose hardware/software codesign as a starting point for teaching the topic. Codesign helps designer-students to think about architecture design in terms ...
متن کاملGuest Editor's Introduction: Hardware-Software Codesign
Stanford lhversity nterest in hardware-software codesign has been growing steadily in recent years. Particularly interesting is the trend toward establishing an integrated design methodology for hardware and software systems that could be supported by computer-aided design tools. Practical CAD environments for codesign in the short term are credible, thanks to the maturing of hardware synthesis...
متن کاملHardware/Software Codesign Overview
The Hardware/Software Codesign Overview module is intended to introduce the hardware/software codesign to the practicing design, software, and systems engineers, and to the senior undergraduate or first year graduate student. The module provides key codesign concepts and attempts to show the benefits of the codesign approach over the current design process. The module consists of eight sections...

with reconfigurable logic and multiple processing elements sharing a common memory, like that shown in Figure 1, is likely to become quite common in the near future. For example, programmable-logic companies are producing single chips containing millions of reconfigurable logic gate equivalents and full-custom VLSI processors. Designers can customize such chips by reprogramming the reconfigurab...
متن کاملAn Environment for Hardware-Software Cosimulation
The goal of this project is to create a simulation environment for hardware-software codesign. It is important to perform simulation of the hardware/software system at various stages of the codesign process. In the environment, the hardware and software are viewed as two separate components communicating through an interface. The modeling of the communication between the hardware and software i...
