Goal(s)
The digital system complexity is increasing together with the tremendous integration that integrated circuit fabrication technology offers. Future improvements will come from the parallelisation of several processing units such as CPU or dedicated hardware units (IP). Indeed, the running frequency of digital system is reaching a limit that need to be overcomed thanks to an increase of parallelism. The digital system complexity needs to be manage and some methodology is needed to design efficient systems.
The purposes of this course are:
* To give a framework and methodologies for the design of embedded systems.
* Set performance criterias to guide the designer and help OEM to choose efficient products.
