Abstract :
This paper presents a flexible and efficient generation of low power oriented hardware dependent software (HdS) for multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC). The flexibility is ensured by defining a hierarchical multilevel power management application programmer interface (API) that spans across multiple HdS layers. The efficiency is guaranteed by an application specific, service based HdS generation flow that automatically adapt high level application needs to low level platform capabilities.
