The approach  incorporates both data flow and control optimizations performed on a  suitable novel intermediate design task representation. The aim is not  only to enhance productivity of the designer and system developer, but  also to improve quality of the final synthesis outcome. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eFunction\/Architecture Optimization and Co-Design of Embedded  Systems\u003c\/em\u003e discusses the proposed function\/architecture co-design  methodology, focusing on design representation, optimization,  validation, and synthesis. Throughout the text, the difference between  behavior specification and implementation is emphasized. The current  need in co-design to move from synthesis-based technology to  compiler-based technology is pointed out. The authors describe and  show how performing data flow and control optimizations at the high  abstraction level can lead to significant size and performance  improvements in both the synthesized hardware and software. The work  builds on bodies of research in the silicon and software compilation  domains. The aforementioned techniques are specialized to the embedded  systems domain. It is recognized that guided optimization can be  applied on the internal design representation, no matter what the  abstraction level, and need not be restricted to the final stages of  software assembly code generation, or hardware synthesis. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eFunction\/Architecture Optimization and Co-Design of Embedded  Systems\u003c\/em\u003e will be of primary interest to researchers, developers, and  professionals in the field of embedded systems design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461369592\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-4359-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 248\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358968869004,"sku":"9781461369592","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461369592.jpg?v=1770782032","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461369592","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
