A concurrent design approach for data flow dominated embedded systems
Baifeng Wu, Chenglian Peng · 2005
The increased complexity and short life cycle of today's embedded systems increase the need of more aggressive methodology capable of designing systems quicker and more easily. In this paper, with the help of dynamic data flow modeling technique and a component-oriented implementation architecture, we present a concurrent design approach for data flow dominated embedded system. The approach can decompose the design process of an embedded system into a lot of separate design items with the consistency being maintained. The generation of implementation code framework for hardware/software components and implementation code for different types of data paths not only accelerates the design process, but also provides a guarantee for the integrity of the target system.
