Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 工程科學系碩博士班 === 96 === The development of hardware modules and software components are usually separated during the process of developing SoC Platform. There are many discussions about the co-work between software and hardware, but the major goals are the planning during initial period of development. Therefore, we focus on the software/hardware co-simulation during the development process; we propose an emulation system framework for software/hardware co-simulation, using an emulator for emulating embedded platforms, and simulation for hardware description language (HDL). The major goal of the framework is to reduce the modification of the software which can execute on both simulator and real SoC target platform successfully, and we can find the bugs in software/hardware quickly, and pay more attention to the optimization for desired systems.
