چکیده

Aim of the proposed methodology is to perform design space exploration at a high-level of abstraction based on high-level estimations of different parameters. In particular, this paper presents a methodology for static and dynamic estimation of the power consumption of the software components. This analysis is based on a fast software compilation strategy that allows a fast re-targeting over different microprocessors. The paper focuses on the description of the overall power assessment flow and its application on an industrial application.

Applying neural networks to performance estimation of embedded software

High-level performance estimation of embedded software implemented in a particular processor is essential for a fast design space exploration, when the designer needs to evaluate different processor architectures (and their different versions) and also different task allocations in a multiprocessor system. The development of fast and adequate performance estimators is required to achieve the ne...

In this paper a system level design approach is presented, which reduces the effort of integrating low level tools for the evaluation of different solutions during design space exploration. Thereby, low level estimation tools can be utilized for a fast and accurate estimation of the power consumption of different HW/SW architectures. The proposed design flow extends the known separation of comm...
