A Platform-Centric Approach to System-On-Chip (Soc) Design

The platform-centric SoC method is aimed at the design of today's SoC systems with emphasis on real-time, embedded systems. The approach provides a guideline and an SoC design environment that promotes an integration of state-of-the-art tools and techniques necessary for the development of the systems. It renders a new and better perspective toward co-design approaches, while also raising a level of design abstraction.
