Platform-based design is a method to implement complex SoCs, avoiding chip design from scratch. A promising evolution of platform-based design are MPSoC. Such generic architecture...
Scratchpads have been widely proposed as an alternative to caches for embedded systems. Advantages of scratchpads include reduced energy consumption in comparison to a cache and a...
Wireless sensor networks have been proposed for many location-dependent applications. In such applications, the requirement of low system cost prohibits many range-based methods f...
In the Sesame framework, we develop a modeling and simulation environment for the efficient design space exploration of heterogeneous embedded systems. Since Sesame recognizes se...
Specification, validation, and synthesis are important aspects of embedded systems design. The use of dataflow-based design environments for these purposes is becoming increasingl...
