Cost pressure, flexibility, extensibility and the need for coping with increased functional
complexity are changing the fundamental paradigms for the definition of automotive and …

Functional Architectures enable re-use of concepts across multiple generations of
technology. This paper shows how to create Functional Architectures in SysML. We give …

Current multi-core design methodologies are facing increasing unpredictability in terms of
quality due to the actual diversity of the workloads that characterize the deployment …

System-level simulation and design space exploration (DSE) are key ingredients for the
design of multiprocessor system-on-chip (MP-SoC) based embedded systems. The efforts in …

Given the increasing complexity of Chip Multi-Processors (CMPs), a wide range of
architecture parameters must be explored at design time to find the best trade-off in terms of …

Hierarchical agent framework is proposed to construct a monitoring layer towards self-aware
parallel systems-on-chip (SoCs). With monitoring services as a new design dimension …

The design space exploration (DSE) problem addressed in this paper is to find out Multi-
Processor System-on-Chip architectures for a given multi-task signal processing application …

Modern consumers carry many electronic devices, like a mobile phone, digital camera, GPS,
PDA and an MP3 player. The functionality of each of these devices has gone through an …
