ES Week Emphasis on Component Based Design
ES Week in Salzburg brought a strong theme into focus, component based design and automation for embedded and MPSoC systems. Praveen Raghavan highlights a few standout keynotes and industry talks, from SDR evolution at Infineon to Tensilica’s push toward instruction set extension and MPSoC assembly. He also notes Toshiba’s new VLIW vector processor for image and video front ends, along with the compiler challenges that come with it.
Knowledge Mine for Embedded Systems
A little-known interactive portal makes learning embedded systems surprisingly practical and visual. The site is organized into four main areas: embedded systems design, design lifecycle, design methods, and design tools. Each section uses clickable system block diagrams so you can jump from a block, for example a MAC unit, to a focused page with detailed explanations. It’s a handy, ready reference for DSP and embedded engineers.
