Analysis and Design of run-time Reconfigurable, heterogeneous Systems

Forschungsförderungsprojekt
The objective of the ANDRES project is to reduce the design time and cost of highly integrated embedded systems. These systems are heterogeneous in nature. They include up to four different domains: software, analogue hardware, static hardware, and dynamically reconfigurable hardware, the latter gaining importance because of its new attractive combination of flexibility and efficiency. Currently no methodology exists allowing to seamlessly specify, simulate, synthesize and verify such heterogeneous systems, because each domain comes with its own computational models, languages and design tools. ANDRES will develop solutions to overcome these incompatibilities by developing an integrated modelling approach for heterogeneous embedded systems. This approach builds on the open-source modelling language SystemC already adopted by many European companies. Next ANDRES will close the gaps in the tool flow for dynamically reconfigurable hardware by developing a tool to translate adaptive models onto RTL descriptions.
