- Abstract
- Existent hardware-software (HW-SW) codesign tools mainly focus onHW-SW cosimulation to build
a virtual prototyping environment that enables software design and system verification without
need of making a hardware prototype. Not only HW-SW cosimulation, but also HW-SW codesign
methodology involves system specification, functional simulation, design-space exploration, and
hardware-software cosynthesis. The PeaCE codesign environment is the first full-fledged HW-SW
codesign environment that provides seamless codesign flow from functional simulation to system
synthesis. Targeting for multimedia applications with real-time constraints, PeaCE specifies the
system behavior with a heterogeneous composition of three models of computation and utilizes
features of the formal models maximally during the whole design process. It is also a reconfigurable
framework in the sense that third-party design tools can be integrated to build a customized tool
chain. Experiments with industry-strength examples prove the viability of the proposed technique.
