IMEC announced The IMEC MPSoC technology provides solutions by focusing on design-time application mapping. The technology’s two main threads offer support for fast parallelization (with the Multi-processor Parallelization Assistant tool) and support for memory hierarchy optimizations (with the Memory Hierarchy tool).
IMEC’s tools, methods, and associated services have a proven industrial strength. They have been used by IMEC’s industrial partners for commercial embedded systems as well as for in-house IMEC MPSoC implementations, e.g. IMEC’s advanced multi-core platform for software-defined radio and a multi-core multi-media platform using 6 of IMEC’s ADRES processor cores. Interested companies may license the tools, or acquire them under a technology transfer agreement.
