Title
Hardware/software partitioning of VHDL system specifications
Abstract
This paper presents an approach for system level specification and hardware/software partitioning with VHDL. The implications of using VHDL as a specification language are discussed and a message passing mechanism is proposed for process interaction. We define the metric values for partitioning and develop a cost function that guides our heuristics towards performance optimization under hardware and software cost constraints. Experimental results are presented.
