Abstract

Design productivity of MPSoC is a major challenge for semiconductor industry. Low design productivity affects concurrent engineering on increasingly software dominated SoC design. In this paper we describe automatic design methodologies for MPSOC and prototyping on multi-FPGA platforms which allows fast design productivity. Case studies of actual implementation for both homogeneous and heterogeneous designs from 12 to 672 PE with shared and distributed memory architecture will be thoroughly described.
