With traditional cycle-accurate or instruction-set simulations of processors often being too
slow, host-compiled or source-level software execution approaches have recently become …

Multiprocessor System-on-Chips (MPSoCs) are nowadays widely used, but the problem of
their software development persists to be one of the biggest challenges for developers …

With increasing complexity of today's embedded systems, research has focused on
developing fast, yet accurate high-level and executable models of complete platforms …

Virtual platform models are a popular approach for virtual prototyping of multi-
processor/multi-core systems-on-chip (MPCSoCs). Such models aid in system-level design …

We propose an incremental approach to the identification of (business) objects in legacy
applications. In this approach different object identification scenarios can be applied …

Due to the growing complexity of multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoCs), there is an
increasing demand on efficient design space exploration techniques. In addition to the …

Virtual Prototypes (VPs) based on Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) have become a de-
facto standard in today's SoC design, enabling early SW development. However, due to the …

With increasing complexity and software content, modern embedded platforms employ a
heterogeneous mix of multicore processors along with hardware accelerators in order to …

Host-compiled simulation has been widely adopted as a practical approach for fast and high-
level evaluation of complex software-intensive systems at early stages of the design …

This article presents the HeroeS virtual platform driven methodology for embedded multi-
core and real-time SW design. The methodology's focus is on early integration, testing and …
