Using Streamline With Fast Models And Fixed Virtual Platforms


In a previous blog I wrote about the Fastline plugin developed for Arm Fast Models, and how it can be used with the Streamline performance analyzer. With the recent release of DS-5 5.28, we have enhanced this experience, including all necessary files within the DS-5 installation, and built-in setup wizards to make it easier to set up and configure. In this blog I will take you through t... » read more

Continuous Integration


In this article, I tackle the classic question engineers developing software for custom integrated circuits (ICs) grapple with constantly: How do I test my software before the hardware team gets me a working silicon chip? No ‘one size fits all’ solution is provided here (look for that alongside my pet unicorn); instead I detail an easy-to-use yet powerful approach to solve this proble... » read more

Fast Models, Cycle Models


There has been a lot of coverage since the launch of new CPU and graphics cores at Computex 2017, including some information about early software development. The public announcement of new ARM IP is a milestone for ARM Models because it means we can now talk about available models and share additional information about the new IP. ARM Fast Models and Cycle Models enable virtual prototyping ... » read more

Do More, Earlier


The ARM Cortex-R52 processor is the most advanced processor for functional safety and the first implementation of the ARMv8-R architecture. Along with the announcement of the Cortex-R52, ARM offers a number of development tools to help partners speed up their path to market. This is especially helpful for a new architecture which highlights software separation for safety and security. This arti... » read more
