Modern Embedded Systems: Compilers, Architectures, and Languages

The aim of MESCAL project is to introduce a disciplined approach to developing reusable architectural platforms that can be easily programmed to meet the requirements for a variety of applications. In particular, our goal is two fold (1) to provide a programmer's model and software development environment that allows for efficient implementation of an interesting set of applications onto a family of fully-programmable multi-processor architectures and (2) to develop an architecture development system to specify, evaluate and explore such fully-programmable (micro-) architectures using a correct-by-construction method. Achieving this goal requires coordination of research in applications, software environments, and application-specific instruction-set processor (ASIP) design.

See the Parallel Applications Libraries Languages Algorithms and Systems (Pallas) project for recent research.
