C-based design techniques and methodologies have been proposed to tackle the complexity of heterogeneous embedded systems. The heterogeneity comes in the functionalities and the im...
This paper addresses the physical hardware requirements necessary for a co-design hardware/software virtual machine to not only exist, but to also provide comparable performance w...
Software systems have to provide flexibility by implementing variability. Existing design methodologies do not support means for optimizing the design for variability and for mea...
MPEG-4 Fine Granularity Scalability (FGS) provides bandwidth adaptation and error resilience features for streaming applications. In this paper. by estimating the required computa...
High-level power design presents a complex, multiobjective problem that involves the simultaneous optimisation of competing criteria such as speed, area and power. It is difficult...
