The authors lay out a set micro-benchmarks to evaluate and compare multicore networks-on-chip (NoC) architectures designed to systematically exercise all of the important aspects of a NoC/MPSoc design.

The results are in. Here is an analysis of embedded systems industry's most comprehensive annual study.

Embedded silicon vendors are delivering ever more sophisticated processor systems incorporating multiple cores, hardware acceleration, coprocessors, and security, and are employing myriad design techniques to improve performance, reduce power dissipation, and minimize cost. The inevitable result of such innovation is increased complexity for device manufacturers. Software engineers must become experts in many fields if they are to unlock the full value of the silicon. What solutions are available to developers, both in hardware and software, to simplify their job and help them deliver quality products on budget and on time? The panelists on this webinar will examine what is available today, what to steer clear of, and what the future holds.
