Design of Embedded Systems: Formal Models, Validation, and Synthesis

ABSTRACT
An abstract algorithm specification with idealized
arithmetic must be made concrete with realistic arithmetic in the
final phase of the ``algorithm-to-implementation'' design process in
order to assess power consumption, hardware cost, and execution speed.
In this paper, an infrastructure for refining an idealized model to
get an architecture-dependent specification with finite precision is
introduced. This infrastructure is built on top of the Ptolemy
environment.
