of Adaptive HW/SW Systems in SystemC
Fernando Herrera, Eugenio Villar, Philipp A. Hartmann · 2008
This paper proposes a SystemC-based specication methodology of adaptive embedded systems to be implemented on a platform including one or more processors, thus supporting the execution of embedded software, and digital hardware with capabilities of partial dynamic reconguration (DRHW). For it, it proposes the collaboration of two specication methodologies: HetSC and OSSS+R. The main issues for the integration of these specication methodologies are addressed. This includes how to install and use them together, which is the structure of the specication, how adaptivity is specied for SW and DRHW implementation, and the syntactical and semanticual issues related to the MoC interface implicit in their connection. 1
