CASTLE is a co-design platform developed at GMD SET institute. It provides a number of design tools for configuring application specific design flows. This paper presents a walk through the CASTLE co-design environment, following the design flow of a video processing system. The design methodology and the tool usage for this real life example are described, as seen from a designers point of vie...

This appendix describes the procedure developed by Clough and Duncan (1971) for the determination of hyperbolic parameter values for interfaces. Hyperbolic parameter values of the interfaces between concrete and dense Density Sand, medium-dense Density Sand, and dense Light Castle Sand are determined based on the results of the initial loading tests presented in Appendix C. Example calculations...
