  • Abstract
    HW-SW partitioning is an important problem in HW-SW codesign of embedded systems. We establish a HW-SW partitioning model based on system´s basic scheduling block (BSB) graph and propose a modified genetic partitioning algorithm (MGPA). By adopting an adaptive fitness function definition and a novel evolving strategy, we enhance the stability, efficiency and result quality of our partitioning algorithm. Experiment results show the algorithm´s effectiveness in solving the HW-SW partitioning problem.
