Resumo: | Abstract:
Advances in reconfigurable technologies allow entire multiprocessor systems to be implemented in a single FPGA (Multiprocessor System on Programmable Chip, MP-SoPC).
In order to speed up the design time of such heterogeneous systems, new modelling techniques must be developed. Furthermore, dynamic execution is a key point for modern systems, i.e. systems that can partially change their behavior at run time in order to adjust their execution to the environment.
UML (Unified Modeling Language) has been used for software modeling since its first version. Recently, with new modeling concepts added to later versions (UML 2), it has become more and more suitable for hardware modeling.
This thesis is a contribution to the MOPCOM project, where we propose a set of modeling techniques in order to build complex embedded systems by using UML. The modeling techniques proposed here consider the system to be built in one complete model. Moreover, we propose a set of transformation that allows the system to be automatically generated. Our approach allows the modelling of dynamic applications onto reconfigurable platforms. Design time reduction up to 30% has been measured while using our methodology.
