Abstract

We present performance models of communication structures in hardware/software systems as the basis for communication architecture synthesis with real-time constraints. Based on a partitioned mixed hardware/software description and communication constraints a thorough analysis of different communication structures is carried out to determine the optimal communication architecture. The hardware/software system will be emulated as an architecture-precise prototype on a real-time platform
