In the design of embedded hardware/software systems, exploration and synthesis of different design alternatives and co-verification of specific implementations are the most demanding tasks. Networked embedded systems pose a new challenge to existing design methodologies as novel requirements like adaptivity and runtime-reconfigurability arise. In this paper, we introduce a co-design environment based on the Java language which supports specification, co-synthesis and prototype execution for dynamically reconfigurable hardware/software systems.
In this paper, the domain of automotive safety is addressed. A specijk application, i.e., autonomous, intelligent cruise controller, is selected. Model-based techniques which facilitate implementation independent specijkation and design of such a system are discussed. A set of systems requirements, the underlying object and behavioral models are given. In conclusion, postulates are discussed for the physical realization of the presented application.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
