System-level exploration tools for MPSoC designs
Peter L. Flake, Simon J. Davidmann, Frank Schirrmeister · 2006
In this paper, we describe the challenges users face for software development on Systems on Chip (SoC) involving multiple cores. We will briefly review the trends and challenges for MPSoC design and will derive from them the resulting requirements. We will then discuss briefly the required exploration tools and close with an analysis of which type of providers will be able to provide appropriate solutions to the MPSoC challenge.
