Abstract
Shortened design and lifetime of embedded systems has motivated active research in HW/SW co-design area, together with evolution of relatively long-life of reconfigurable HW. In this paper we present AKKA-a set of tools for design space exploration, co-simulation and co-synthesis with two industrial examples from the telecommunication field-Maintenance functionality of the ATM protocol and Channel decoder functionality of a D-AMPS base station. For fast prototyping we have selected Xilinx XC4013 FPGA based board from Virtual Computer Corporation. The board is connected to the system bus (SBus) of the host computer
