User Perspective: Hardware-Software Co-Design

By Ed Sperling - 07 Oct, 2010 - Comments: 0

By Ann Steffora Mutschler With software teams today twice as large as hardware teams for any given complex SoC project, there is no doubt it is an ideal time to agree on the best way for these worlds to intersect. And even though the semiconductor industry has been actively discussing hardware-software co-design for at least a decade a mainstream solution has yet to be commercialized. Progr... » read more
