Abstract :
A system-on-chip hardware/software co-design platform was presented based on model driven-based design method. After the overall architecture of platform was described, four design levels and three mapping processes were introduced. Some key techniques were explained in detail, such as hardware/software partitioning algorithm based on genetic algorithm & constraint task scheduling, UML profile for SystemC model and template-based model-to-text transform method. Take design of a MIL-STD-1553B bus system with PCI interface for example, working flow of system-on-chip hardware/software co-design on the platform was provided.
