System-on-Chip Design

Catalog description

Presents methods, tools, and techniques for system-level design and modeling of complete multi-processor Systems on Chip (SoC) from specification down to implementation across hardware-software boundaries. Includes the concepts, issues, and process of designing integrated SoCs following systematic hardware/software co-design and co-verification principles. Also covers exploring design trade-offs and parameter tuning to optimize performance. Emphasizes block systems design to promote sustainable hardware and software development within the system-level design. Two hours lecture. Three hours laboratory. Prerequisite(s): CE 310 . Prerequisite(s)/Corequisite(s): CS 331 .
