Fast and Accurate Multiprocessor Architecture Exploration with Symbolic Programs

In system-level platform-based embedded systems design, the mapping model is a crucial link between the application model and the architecture model. All three models must match when design-space exploration has to be fast and accurate, and when exploration methods and design methods have to be closely related. For the media processing application domain we present an architecture model and corresponding mapping model that meet these requirements better than previously proposed models. A case study illustrates this improvement.
