....process vanishes. Originally intended for software design, neither C nor C has the basic support required for accurately dealing with the hardware parts of a SoC design. There are two approaches for building this type of hardware support. The first approach relies on syntax extension [2,7,9,12,16] and requires the development of separate compilers, simulators, and synthesis tools to manipulate the new syntax. In this paper we look at the second approach which relies on class libraries to model the hardware aspects of the SoC design and can only be used with languages that are extensible ....

Both Polis and SPI use an internal model for composition. Both JavaTime and SpecC use another specification language (respectively Java and SpecC) for composition. The cosimulation based approach consists in interconnecting the design ....

....mixed description given in VHDL or VERILOG for hardware and C for software. All of them allow for cosimulation. However, only Coware allows for interface synthesis [2] Only few systems in the literature tried to tackle the Cosimulation based multilanguage codesign approach at a higher level [20] [4], 14] 10] Unfortunately most of these systems provide only Cosimulation facilities [20] 14] The work presented in this paper overcomes these limitations. It allows to start the multilanguage approach at the system level providing both system level refinement and high level interfaces ....

....enabling product on demand is the use of predesigned, complex components which can be easily integrated in order to build the product. Such components are called Intellectual Property (IP) and the system design methodology, which is based on the integration of IP components, is called IP centric [2]. Typical IP components include memories, processors (general purpose as well as application specific ones like DSPs) and special purpose circuits for standard applications like encoding decoding algorithms and communica tion protocols (e.g. a PCI bus interface) It should be noted that IP ....
