Formal Methods and Models for System Design A System Level Perspective

Perhaps nothing characterizes the inherent heterogeneity in embedded sys­ tems than the ability to choose between hardware and software implementations of a given system function. Indeed, most embedded systems at their core repre­ sent a careful division and design of hardware and software parts of...
