Abstract :
Consumer electronics (CEs) is mainly characterized by its heterogeneity in products and markets. Moreover, large companies like Google, YouTube, Myspace, are revolutionizing the way to provide information contents. Today, several new CE devices have been introduced in the marketplace for receiving, visualizing, communicating, creating, and sending information. This changing implies that end-users are looking for devices with more features, better quality and elegant and simple user interface. This trend has a big impact on the features that System-on-Chips (SoC) have to support.
