In a C compiler, function calls are difficult to implement correctly because they must respect a platform-specific calling convention. But they are governed by a simple invariant...
This paper presents CMOD, a novel tool that provides a sound module system for C. CMOD works by enforcing a set of four rules that are based on principles of modular reasoning and...

—The microprocessor verification challenge becomes higher in the on-chip bus (OCB) than in the unit-level. Especially for the external interrupts, since they interface with othe...
—SystemC is a system-level modeling language that offers a wide range of features to describe concurrent systems rent levels of abstraction. The SystemC standard permits simulato...
Applications from the embedded consumer domain put challenging requirements on SoC infrastructures, i.e. interconnect and memory. Specifically, video applications demand large sto...
