Abstract :
An environment is given for fast prototyping of real-time systems. The supported spectrum of realizations for such systems varies from single task implementations on a general purpose microprocessor to heterogeneous multiprocessor systems with application specific processors. The prototyping environment includes a language to describe a real-time system, a compiler that transforms the description into its specified realization format and a hardware environment that is based on a VMEbus system. The VMEbus system includes a Motorola 68020 CPU with multi-tasking operating system and a prototyping board which can be either configured as multi-DSP board or as emulation board for the implementation of an application specific processor architecture
