This book provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art,
data flow-based techniques for the analysis, modeling and mapping
technologies of concurrent applications on multi-processors. The authors
present a flow for designing embedded hard/firm real-time multiprocessor
streaming applications, based on data flow formalisms, with a particular
focus on wireless modem applications. Architectures are described for
the design tools and run-time scheduling and resource management of such
a platform.
