System-on-chip (SoC) is believed to represent the next major market for microelectronics. Al-Hashimi (computer engineering, University of Southampton, UK) gathers information on existing and emerging SoC research areas, with focus on general principles and ideas of designing, validating, and testing complex embedded computing systems and their underlying tradeoffs. Each chapter begins with background on basic principles, then surveys key achievements and future trends. Chapters are grouped in sections on system design, embedded software, power management, reconfigurable computing, network-on-chip, and verification and testing. The book will be of interest to graduate students, designers, and managers working in electronic and computer engineering. The work presented here originated at a spring 2005 meeting. The book is distributed in the US by Books International. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
System-on-Chip (SoC) represents the next major market for microelectronics, and there is considerable interest world-wide in developing effective methods and tools to support the SoC paradigm. SoC is an expanding field, at present the technical and technological literature about the overall state-of-the-art in SoC is dispersed across a wide spectrum which includes books, journals, and conference proceedings. The book provides a comprehensive and accessible source of state-of-the-art information on existing and emerging SoC key research areas, provided by leading experts in the field. This book covers the general principles of designing, validating and testing complex embedded computing systems and their underlying tradeoffs. The book has twenty five chapters organised into eight parts, each part focuses on a particular topic of SoC. Each chapter has some background covering the basic principles, and extensive list of references. It is aimed at graduate students,! designers and managers working in Electronic and Computer engineering.
