These techniques provide a competitive advantage over purely  hardware or software implementations of time-constrained embedded  systems. \u003cbr\u003e  Recent advances in chip-level synthesis have made it possible to  synthesize application-specific circuits under strict timing  constraints. This work advances the state of the art by formulating  the problem of system synthesis using both application-specific as  well as reprogrammable components, such as off-the-shelf processors.  Timing constraints are used to determine what part of the system  functionality must be delegated to dedicated application-specific  hardware while the rest is delegated to software that runs on the  processor. This co-synthesis of hardware and software from behavioral  specifications makes it possible to realize real-time embedded systems  using off-the-shelf parts and a relatively small amount of  application-specific circuitry that can be mapped to semi-custom VLSI  such as gate arrays. The ability to perform detailed analysis of  timing performance provides the opportunity of improving the system  definition by creating better phototypes. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eCo-Synthesis of Hardware and Software for Digital Embedded  Systems\u003c\/em\u003e is of interest to CAD researchers and developers who want  to branch off into the expanding field of hardware\/software co-design,  as well as to digital system designers who are interested in the  present power and limitations of CAD techniques and their likely  evolution. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-08-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792396130\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-2287-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 266\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578390864012,"sku":"9780792396130","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792396130.jpg?v=1771510988","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792396130","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
