pt. 1. Methods, models and tools -- pt. 2. Design contexts
Summary
Design technology to address the new and vast problem of heterogeneous embedded systems design while remaining compatible with standard 'More Moore' flows, i.e. capable of simultaneously handling both silicon complexity and system complexity, represents one of the most important challenges facing the semiconductor industry today and will be for several years to come. While the micro-electronics industry, over the years and with its spectacular and unique evolution, has built its own specific design methods to focus mainly on the management of complexity through the establishment of abstraction
