Abstract

<p align="justify"> Virtual prototyping stands for the development of hardware/software systems without using a real hardware prototype, i&#046;e&#046; no printed circuit board with electronic devices such as processors, field programmable gate arrays, peripherals and other devices is needed&#046; The advantage is the possibility to exchange parts in the system setup with faster turnaround times in comparison to the traditional development process, where a time consuming redesign of the complete board has to be done&#046; Since some years, the community exploiting these novel methods has grown as time to market plays a major role in industry&#046; Additionally, the increasing complexity of embedded systems, which are more and more realized as parallel and distributed cyber&#8211;physical system, forces to perform a time&#8211;consuming design space exploration&#046; For academics virtual prototyping is a hot topic and is used to develop future systems and to enable an outlook into the next generation of embedded systems and devices&#046; The wide range of application scenarios for this type of development includes amongst others automotive, avionics, railway and medicine applications&#046; This workshop targets the domain of virtual prototyping focusing the following topics: </p> <p> </p> <table align="justify" border="0"><tbody><tr> <td> &#8211; Virtual prototyping development tools</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Methods for virtual prototyping of complex systems</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Application development with virtual platforms</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Methods for Hardware / Software Codesign with virtual platforms</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Design space exploration for parallel and distributed multicore and cyber&#8211;<br>physical systems</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Estimation of system characteristics in an early stage of development</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Functional verification at a high level of abstraction</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Methods for modelling of IP cores with SystemC</td> </tr> <tr> <td> &#8211; Usage of Architecture Description Languages (ADL) for IP core development</td></tr></tbody></table>
