Fast dynamic analysis of complex HW/SW-systems based on abstract state machine models

High level design decisions as HW/SW-partitioning and instrumenting of building blocks can be supported efficiently by detailed analysis of dynamic instruction usage. In many cases the instruction usage is specific to the application domain in view. We present a very fast analysis approach based on...

Summary:High level design decisions as HW/SW-partitioning and instrumenting of building blocks can be supported efficiently by detailed analysis of dynamic instruction usage. In many cases the instruction usage is specific to the application domain in view. We present a very fast analysis approach based on high level system models. Complex application characteristics, e.g., the average number of not interrupted instructions can be determined. This is much more than execution of, for example, C-programs can provide.
