Design, implementation and validation of a generic and reconfigurable protocol stack framework for mobile terminals
Thorsten Schöler, Christian Müller-Schloer · 2004
We introduce a modular and reconfigurable software framework for protocol stacks implemented in platform independent manner. Simulation tools useful for software validations are introduced and a new distributed, three-staged procedure for validation of protocol stack software is proposed. Assertion-based virtual prototyping (based on nonresident assertions), utilising simulation of hardware software co-systems as well as software probes containing code-resident assertions are used in the proposed validation process.
