Résumé
Multiprocessor SoCs (MPSoCs) have rapidly evolved towards high-performance heterogeneous computing systems designed under performance, power efficiency and scalability concerns. Such systems accomplish billions of operations per second moving towards hundreds of processing elements that communicate through a network-on-chip. The hardware and software complexity of such systems is increasing dramatically, resulting in new design challenges, such as providing scalable modeling facilities and verification for both hardware and software. This work proposes a multi-level design approach for MPSoCs, targeting the reduction of software development cycle. The paper also presents different scenarios for exploration purposes, showing the benefits in term of design space exploration for to the proposed environment.
