            Abstract : 
Motivated by the increasing heterogeneity and complexity of MPSoC systems, we propose a component-based generic approach for MPSoC observation. We show that components help in observing all software levels from system to application. We present the EMBera prototype and relate our experience in implementing it on two different platforms: a Linux-based 16-core SMP machine and a 5-core embedded system developed by STMicroelectronics.
