A Model Driven Co-Design Approach for High Performance Embedded Systems Dedicated to Transport
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper demonstrates that the Model Driven Engineering approach is reliable for the development of codesign environments dedicated to embedded systems. From a UML model of a data parallel application, the Gaspard environment is able to generate an hardware accelerator which executes the modeled application. All the potential parallelism of a given application is modeled in UML and is exploited in order to generate a powerful hardware system. Gaspard is dedicated to intensive signal processing applications. Therefore, many automotive sector applications could benefit of the Gaspard environment.

Metamodels and MDA Transformations for Embedded Systems
Embedded system design needs to model together application and hardware architecture. For that a huge number of models are available, each one proposing its own abstraction level associated to its own software platform for simulation or synthesis. To produce a co-design framework, we are obviously obliged to support different models among all possible ones. Between these models we should produc...

The design of embedded platforms for connected objects (smartphones and beyond) is made harder because such systems must satisfy stringent constraint beyond functional correctness and accuracy. Namely, extra-functional requirements such as performance, power consumption and thermal dissipation are equally important, while there are important trade-offs between them. In the recent years so-calle...

متن کاملSpin-polarized transport through a zigzag-edge graphene flake embedded between two armchair nanoribbons electrodes
We study the coherent spin-polarized transport through a zigzag-edge graphene flake (ZGF), using Hubbard model in the nearest neighbor approximation within the framework of the Green function’s technique and Landauer formalism. The system considered consists of electrode/ (ZGF)/electrode, in which the electrodes are chosen to be armchair nanoribbons. The study was performed for two types of ele...
