| Review: |
System-on-chip (SoC) designs combine hardware and software components that have traditionally been developed separately and combined at a later stage. To address the increasing complexity of the design and the time-to-market, new design methodologies that support SoCs are needed. This book aims to give the latest advances in some areas of SoC research. Twenty-five international research groups have contributed up-to date research surveys highlighting what they see to be key achievements and future trends. This book is divided into eight parts: System-level design; Embedded software; Power reduction and management; Reconfigurable computing; Architectural synthesis; Network-on-chip; Simulation and verification; and Manufacturing test. |
