Automatic Instrumentation Technique of Embedded Software for High Level Hardware/Software Co-Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose an automatic instrumentation method for embedded software annotation to enable performance modeling in high level hardware/software co-simulation environments. The proposed ”cross-annotation” technique consists of extending a retargetable compiler infrastructure to allow the automatic instrumentation of embedded software at the basic block level. Thus, target and annotated native binaries are guaranteed to have isomorphic control flow graphs (CFG). The proposed method takes into account the processor-specific optimizations at the compiler level and proves to be accurate with low simulation over-

Powering Model Based Co-Design
In the last decade, industrial processes using modeling techniques have been successfully applied to both Hardware (SoC and ECU) and Software development. A Virtual Platform is a software model of the hardware on which full software can be executed at high speed and with cycle and timing accuracy. The goal of this modeling phase is the same in both instances; to provide an executable golden ref...
متن کاملHardware Modeling in VHDL for Mixed Hardware/Software System Level Co-simulation of Embedded Systems
We present a method for modeling and then simulating a mixed hardware/software embedded system implementation in VHDL starting from a high level design representation. In our approach, a complete system description including the communication interfaces is generated automatically in VHDL: Software is modeled by using behavioral VHDL constructs, annotated with timing information derived from bas...
متن کاملHardware Software Co-design for Automotive CPS using Architecture Analysis and Design Language
Modern cyber-physical systems (CPS) have a close interdependence between software and physical components. Automotive embedded systems are typical CPS, as physical chips, sensors and actuators are physical components and software embedded within are the cyber components. The current stage of embedded systems is highly complex in architecture design for both software and hardware. It is common i...

متن کاملMatlab/SystemC for the New Co-Simulation Environment by JPEG Algorithm
The functionality of embedded systems as well as the time-to-market pressure has been continuously increasing in the past decades. Simulation of an entire system including both hardware and software from early design stages is one of the effective approaches to improve the design productivity. A large number of research efforts on hardware/software (HW/SW) co-simulation have been made so far. R...
