  • Abstract
    This paper describes a method to estimate the implementation cost of the hardware part in a mixed hardware/software system, as well as the related performance. These estimations try to avoid the use of many implementation details in order to keep the complexity order of the process under control. The concepts of hardware sharing and parallelism are exploited to make a picture of the whole hardware cost associated with a given partition
