Increasing complexity of embedded systems demands system designers to ramp up their design productivity without compromising performance goals which is done by Electronic System Level (ESL) techniques. This book addresses a segment of the ESL area by modeling partially re-configurable processors via high-level Architecture Description Language.

Increasing complexity of modern embedded systems demands system designers to ramp up their design productivity without compromising performance goals. This is promoted by modern Electronic System Level (ESL) techniques. Language-driven Exploration and Implementation of Partially Re-configurable ASIPs addresses an important segment of the ESL area by modeling partially re-configurable processors via high-level Architecture Description Language (ADL). This approach also hints an imminent evolution in the area of re-configurable system design.
