            Abstract : 
Increasing demands regarding complexity and time-to-market of embedded systems raise the necessity to continuously explore new development flows and introduce new tools in order to survive as one of the leading semiconductor and system suppliers in the market. This document shall outline an innovative development approach that was chosen at Infineon Technologies AG to mainly pull-in and safeguard the development and verification of the embedded firmware part of a complex signal processing device for mobile applications
