PREESM - PREESM : an eclipse plug-in for the fast prototyping of signal processing applications

PREESM is a fast prototyping tool for multicore architectures. The input are two graphs describing an algorithm and an architecture. It includes a generic graph editor, a graph transformation library and an automatic mapper/scheduler, simulation and code generation capabilities.

EPOC - EPOC Contracting Framework, Self-Configuration of evolving hard-real time systems

We present a runtime solution to self-configuration of real-time systems undergoing an evolution. To achieve this, we extended the EPOC Framework by a distributed constraint solving algorithm that finds feasible priority assignments in SPP scheduled systems taking end-to-end latencies into account.

MTh-DMM-Explorer - Dynamic Memory Management Customization for Multi-Processor Systems-on-Chip

The MTh-DMM-Explorer: It models the complete design space of dynamic memory managers for MPSoCs in decision trees, performs automated exploration (In the inter-thread design space and in the intra-thread design space based on the constraints generated from the previous step). It automatically generate the source code of Pareto-optimal customized dynamic memory managers.

PRESSNoC - Power-Aware and Reliable Encoding Schemes Supported Reconfigurable Network-on-Chip Architecture

To meet the varying run-time requirements of Network-on-Chip (NoC) communication on reliability and power-efficiency, we propose a Power-aware and Reliable Encoding Schemes Supported reconfigurable Network-on-Chip (PRESSNoC) architecture.

Embedded system for Building Management with Timing Verification

We demonstrate a Building Management System with small-scale devices, low energy consumption and Timing Verification for the use in “Smart Buildings” and a concept for its Timing verification to guarantee the correct timing of the networked real-time electronic components and their interaction.

ORIP - Operational Refinement of Multimedia Processing

A live video capturing and processing system is presented on a state-of-the-art low-power device (xo-laptop or “100$ laptop). We demonstrate how we can change quality/complexity on-the-fly while capturing and processing, thereby allowing for joint quality/throughput/power-consumption tradeoffs.

Migrating from RTL to ESL via SystemC Training

We are presenting a training package for describing hardware with C++ and SystemC. The package contains videos, reading materials, slides, and software. After covering the basics, we start at the RT level with a section on VHDL. This is followed by a corresponding SystemC presentation, and then moving up into SystemC channels. The package readies an RTL designer for advanced ESL designs. SystemC simulation software and RTL translation tools are included in this package.

ESL Design Methodology for Architecture Exploration using OSCI TLM 2.0 Standard

We present a methodology for design of complex digital systems at system level through a training video. We have implemented a variety of designs using OSCI TLM 2.0 standard in order to come up with the design methodology. The video explains a number of design sub-levels and guidelines for design at each sub-level.

SmartCoDe - Smart Contol of Demand

The objective is to investigate means and architectures that allow integration of (RF) communication, and switching and managing of high-volgate (230V) in a System-in-Package (SiP) which is funded in the FP7 project SmartCoDe. As a result, the power consumption of households and environments shall be reduced and become planable ("demand-side management").
