Quality-Driven Template-Based Architecture Synthesis for Real-time Embedded SoCs

The recent spectacular progress in modern microelectronics created a big stimulus towards development of embedded and autonomous systems. Unfortunately, it also introduced unusual complexity that results in many serious issues that cannot be resolved without new more adequate development methods and EDA-tools for the system-level design. This paper discusses the problem of an efficient multi-objective optimal architecture synthesis for complex hard real-time embedded systems, when using as an example a system-level architecture exploration and synthesis method that we developed
