“…As explained in [10], two design automation approaches are competing to improve productivity: top-down and bottom-up approaches. The most popular top-down approaches are: synthesis from system level models [11][12] [13] and platform-based design [14][15]. These approaches start with an architectural solution, target architecture or architecture platform.…”

This paper presents a high-level component-based methodology and design environment for application-specific multicore SoC architectures. Component-based design provides primitives to build complex architectures from basic components. This bottomup approach allows design-architects to explore efficient custom solutions with best performances. This paper presents a high-level component-based methodology and design environment for application-specific multicore SoC architectures. The system specifications are represented as a virtual architecture described in a SystemC-like model and annotated with a set of configuration parameters. Our component-based design environment provides automatic wrapper-generation tools able to synthesize hardware interfaces, device drivers, and operating systems that implement a high-level interconnect API. This approach, experimented over a VDSL system, shows a drastic design time reduction without any significant efficiency loss in the final circuit.

IBM server-systems are extremely complex, employing multiple processors, peripherals, interconnects, etc. Multiple voltage and power domains are also employed for power-efficient designs. Developing software for such an architecture, in absence of target platform, is an extremely error-prone affair. Bring-up of software once the hardware is available detects large amount of bugs, throwing the project cost and schedule out of control. This paper introduces a methodology to model the power-control network, incorporated within IBM system-level simulation environment. This methodology helps to debug, verify and fine tune the server software much before the availability of the target hardware. lJse of this methodology enables detecting the bugs much earlier in the development cycle. Shift-left is achieved successfully using this methodology as majority of defects are removed much earlier and software bringup-time on hardware has reduced from months to days!

“…The COSYMA system is HW/SW co-design fine or coarse grained partitioning model design proposed by R. Ernst et al [11][12], aims speedup software executions to meet timing constraints. It uses simulated annealing for partitioning along with profiling and symbolic approaches are used to calculate timing information.…”
