摘要
The integration of heterogeneous intellectual property, hardware (IP) into existing hardware platforms is often only considered with respect to IP cores that provide bits interfaces to their environment. This paper will show that there is a need for; and an advantage to be gained from, incorporating non-bus interface IP so that they can be used by software running on the platform's processor(s). This paper presents a grammar with which services of non-bus interface cores can be described. The paper will show how this description can be used to generate adapters to integrate the IP as well as device drivers to use the IP Experiments show how the use of this description can reduce the integration effort of non-bus interface cores.
