  • Abstract
    This paper presents an implementation of the interface of a co-designed virtual machine. It introduces the concept of a co-designed virtual machine, describes the communication requirements of the interface and explains how using a System-on-Chip design can improve the performance of the co-design system. A general model for the communication between hardware and software is presented, and results of testing and evaluation of this interface are given.
