Hardware/Software Validation with a TLM Virtual System Prototype
White Paper
ABSTRACT
With all the complexity associated with the hardware, the software is also crucial to the competitive success of these products. The application software often is the key differentiator for these consumer products, allowing the system company to reap substantial profit margins. Software is also key in the power and performance behavior of the hardware platform.
