Abstract

Modern System&#8211;on&#8211;Chip (SoC) design shows a clear trend towards integration of multiple processor cores on a single chip&#046; Typical multi&#8211;processor SoC applications like network processors, multimedia hubs and base&#8211;band telecom circuits have particularly tight time&#8211;to&#8211;market and performance constraints which require a very efficient design cycle&#046; The trend is then to build large SoCs as a set of programmable and specific HW components interconnected through a sophisticated on&#8211;chip network&#046; This evolution is creating several breaking points in the design process&#046; Current RTL design methods and existing designers are hard to scale to accommodate these complex systems&#046; The main idea of this seminar is to gather key R&D people from the different domains required to master this new kind of systems&#046; <b>Keywords:</b> Network on Chip, Embedded Software, SoC Validation & Test, Reconfigurable Systems, SoC Design Methodologies, Mixed Signal, Embedded Real&#8211;Time Operating Systems, System Architecture
