Overview: Embedded systems are usually composed of several interactingcomponents such as custom or application specific processors, ASICs,memory blocks, and the associated communication infrastructure. Thedevelopment of tools to support the design of such systems requires afurther step from high-level synthesis towards a higher abstractionlevel. The lack of design tools accepting a system-level specificationof a complete system, which may include both hardware and softwarecomponents, is one of the major bottlenecks in the design of embeddedsystems. Thus, more and more research efforts have bee
