Colif: A design representation for application-specific multiprocessor SOCs
W. Cesário, Gabriela Nicolescu, L. Gauthier, D. Lyonnard, A.A. Jerraya · IEEE Design & Test of Computers · 2001
By separating component behavior and communication infrastructure and spanning multiple abstraction levels, Colif lets designers use a divide-and-conquer approach for complex designs and focus on important customizations as they progressively refine the SOC architecture.
