It describes a set of algorithms and methodologies to narrow the software productivity gap, as well as an in-depth description of the underlying problems and challenges of todays programming practices. The authors present four different tool flows: A parallelism extraction flow for applications writtenusing the C programming language, a mapping and scheduling flow for parallel applications, a special mapping flow for baseband applications in the context of Software Defined Radio (SDR) and a final flow for analyzing multiple applications at design time. The tool flows are evaluated on Virtual Platforms (VPs), which mimic different characteristics of state-of-the-art heterogeneous MPSoCs. Provides a novel set of algorithms and methodologies for programming heterogeneous Multi-Processor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs); Equips embedded software developers with a unified presentation of sequential and parallel programming; Focuses on industry-relevant methodologies and uses real case studies to demonstrate techniques; Enables solution of multi-application problems, with generalized and unified programming models.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-00675-8}, recid = {695577}, pages = {1 online resource.}, }
