Preface

This book presents the perspective of the ADRIATIC project for the design of reconfigurable systems-on-chip, as perceived in the course of the research during 2001 - 2004. The project provided: (a) a high-level hardware/software co-design and co-verification methodology and tools for reconfigurable systems-on-chip, supplemented with back-end design tools for the implementation of the reconfigurable logic blocks of the chip, (b) the definition of the technological requirements for reconfi
