Abstract
The issue of co-design of hardware and software often appears in the larger context of system design. Computer architects often trade the implementation of an instruction in hardware for its implementation in software as a sequence of available instructions [HP90]. This flavor of the co-design problem addresses the issue of design of software, and hardware on which the software runs [HD92, HP93, Ho194]. This is clearly different from the notion of hardware and software defined in the previous chapter, where the software is targeted on a predesigned hardware. The idea of hardware-software co-design has even been applied to the process of system design [BV92].
