Programming multi-cores based Digital Signal Processors (DSP) becomes increasingly complex. This complexity is related to the rapid evaluation of Telecommunication and multimedia systems accompanied by a rapid increase of user requirements in terms of latency, power computation, consumption, etc. Workflow showed to be a successful approach for programming the applications based on NoC-DSP platforms. The main goal of this work is the design of a hardware/software system in an automated manner. In this paper, we present our proposed workflow taking as entry point a Simulink file (.mdl or .slx) derived from embedded Matlab functions. This workflow allows an automatic transformation from a Simulink model to synchronous dataflow (SDF) model, followed by a mapping and scheduling steps in order to obtain the C code to be executed by each core within the designed platform. Our approach is based …
