Logic Breadboard Points To Quick Software Splits

摘要

ARM is experimenting with techniques that may yield a way of automatically generating multiprocessor hardware and its software from a single system description. Mike Muller, chief technology officer of ARM, told Electronics: "The idea is to keep everything at the system level."rnCodenamed Ardbeg, after the Islay malt whisky distillery, the current version of the system is a prototype based on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) that is some way from the full automation that the industry is looking for, but could provide the basis for a commercial system.
