....shared memory buffers and communication protocols to be established, such as defining and assigning semaphores for process synchronization. 4. THE MAGIC SDM The new SDM that we have developed is the MAGIC SDM, which stands for the methodology applying generation, integration, and continuity. [3] The origin of this moniker will become clear as we discuss how the MAGIC SDM is used. Any SDM will start with some human language text requirements specification document. The goal of SDMs is to go from this inexact document to a design and implementation in a manner that minimizes propagation ....

....5. CONCLUSION A new specification and design methodology has been developed and prototyped. The MAGIC SDM has been analytically evaluated and benchmarked using a synthetic array radar application. It has been shown to possess a high degree of both model continuity and complexity control [3]. It effectively allows the designer to evaluate candidate architectures and technologies before committing to a technology and be confident that an optimum design has been obtained. m, mat To Workspace Simulation results Timing parameters Token delays VSIPL functions MPI functions ....

....model and a channel for passing it to the design analysis phase leads to model discontinuity, which is the total absence or minimal presence of model continuity. 3 The MAGIC Specification and Design Methodology We have developed and prototyped a new SDM which we call the MAGIC 1 SDM [2]. The means of accomplishing model continuity using the frameworks we chose for the MAGIC SDM is illustrated in Fig. 3. Solid boxes are documents or frameworks. 1 MAGIC Methodology Applying Generation, Integration, and Continuity. A Novel Specification and Design Methodology of Embedded ....

CONCLUSION The MAGIC SDM has been shown to outperform the codesign frameworks and VHDL based virtual prototyping [3]. While MAGIC is a very relevant and valuable SDM in the radar signal processing domain, it is important to consider how applicable the MAGIC SDM is beyond the domain of real time streaming data with data transformation processing applications implemented with embedded COTS multiprocessing ....

....If the tools could collectively cover the three specification domains, then such a methodology should be able to optimally specify and design a COTS MP based signal processing system. This methodology is currently under investigation by the authors and has the flow as shown below in Figure 1 [21]. While the DSPW cannot generate deployable MP code, it does possess two of the MoC s necessary to cover all three specification domains. The implementation frameworks of interest are those that have deployable (i.e. real time) code generation (CG) capabilities. These include Talaris PeakWare, ....
