Networks-on-Chip: An Interconnect Fabric for Multiprocessor Systems-on-Chip

The first self-contained volume of the Embedded Systems Handbook is entitled Embedded Systems Design and Verification. Comprised of the contributions of experts directly involved in the technologies presented, this text is divided into three sections. It begins with a brief introduction to embedded systems design and verification. It then provides a comprehensive overview of embedded processors and various aspects of system-on-chip and FPGA, as well as solutions to design challenges. The final section explores power-aware embedded computing, design issues specific to secure embedded systems, and web services for embedded devices.
