Flexible Codesign Target Architecture for Early Prototyping of CMIST Systems

We present an architecture for rapid prototyping of selected controldominated HW parts resulting from HW/SW cosynthesis. Our codesign toolkit AKKA[1], which targets to design of control intensive systems, consists of design space exploration, estimation, partitioning, cosimulation and verification subtools in common environment. For fast prototyping of HW parts an EVC board with Xilinx XC4013 FPGA is used. We describe an multifunctional architecture, programmable into the FPGA, consisting of reusable interface/memory section and synthesized functional part. Usability of architecture in client-server relationship is described.
