Generating Process Network Communication Infrastructure for Custom Multi-Core Platforms
Peter Verner Bojsen Sørensen, Jan Busk Madsen · International Journal of Embedded and Real-Time Communication Systems · 2010
We present an approach for generating implementations of abstraction layers implementing the communication infrastructure of applications modeled as process networks. Our approach is unique in that it does not rely on assumptions about the capabilities and topology of the underlying platform. Instead, a generic implementation is adapted to the particular platform based on information retrieved from analyzing the platform. At the heart of the approach is a novel method for analyzing the capabilities of custom execution platforms composed of components. The versatility and usefulness of the approach and analysis method is demonstrated through a case study.
